Tails Are Wagging about Plano’s Fun Dog Park Forum
Plano dogs are up in paws about Jack Carter Dog Park. To address their issues, the Plano Dog Park Association (PDPA) has teamed up with Plano Animal Services to bring another great fun pet event to Plano. A Dog Park Forum will be held on Saturday, Oct. 21 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Jack Carter Dog Park, 6199 Pleasant Valley Dr.
The fun begins with Doggie Halloween portraits and a costume contest. Games planned include Dog Bowling, Musical Towels and more.
Members of the PDPA will field questions about the dog park. Got behavior issues? Never fear dog trainer Pamela Foland will answer all your dog behavior questions. Animal Services will be registering pet owners for upcoming Pet First Aid Classes and offering microchipping services. Creature Comforts Animal Hospital will be offering low-cost vaccinations.
The dog park is a double-gated, fenced, 2-acre area along Bluebonnet Trail near its intersection with the Chisholm Trail in central Plano. The area has benches, picnic tables, water stations for humans and animals, and waste pickup/disposal stations.
Please access the park from the parking lot directly west of the area. You will find the parking lot by traveling one half-block north on Pleasant Valley Drive from its intersection with Spring Creek Parkway, west of Custer Road. The address is 6199 Pleasant Valley Dr.
Dogs must wear current registration and rabies vaccination tags. For information on City of Plano licensing procedures and regulations, please contact the Animal Services Department at (972) 769-4360.
