Whangarei Public Dog Park

Tony from Onerahi

Hello everyone. an UPDATE: The dog park looks ready however it should be a few more weeks yet. The grass looks good however there are areas were the birds ate large patches needed to be reseeded. The moulds still growing.

Some of the issues, the grass needs water to grow and since the good drainage it had to be hand watered. The council still needs to put in a water tap by the shelter which would make it easier to water patches.

The GOOD NEWS, so many people loved the dog park and missing it.
# Tony Gill will be doing dog training lessons at the small dog park soon.
# Whangarei District Council now knows dog owners are important in the community.
# Other councils in NZ are watching the progress.
