Due to the wet weather, the upgrades to the dog park in St. Joseph, originally scheduled for August 20 – 22 were rescheduled.

Weather permitting, the dog park will be closed Monday through Wednesday, August 27 – 29, so the new equipment can be installed.

According to the St. Joseph Parks, Recreation and Civic Facilities, the new agility equipment being installed in the small and large dog park areas is funded through a donation from Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica. The Buchanan County 4-H group also donated money for one of the triple hoop pieces of equipment that will be installed at a later date in the large dog park and they will also be assisting with the installation.
