This is a news group, NOTT a discussion list.
It began as an informational supplement to the now defunct dogpark.com discussion list.
We use Special Announcements judiciously and that is the best way to subscribe for most people.

For discussions of common dogpark issues see this group below:

This group also has 1 database with contact info for 42 private dogparks and another for 30 towns using electronic access card technology to regulate dogpark access .

The purpose of this group is to document new parks, expansions, or unusual events that occur in US (or sometimes Canadian) dogparks. This group is moderated. This is a way to track dogpark news in 1 place.
Every story has a short preface summarizing what makes that article unusual is "stamped" with the town, county, state and contact info.
