Jet Fuel in Marsh Water?

Posted by phruden on September 28th, 2007

My dog ran down to the marsh yesterday and started lapping up water.  I was told that the airlines dump jet fuel into this water.   Does that mean there is significant jet fuel in the ground/woods as well?  I have concerns about bringing my dog to this park now.

I wanted to let everyone know that Zoe has recovered and we’re back at the park!  If you see an Weimaraner running with ears blowing in the wind, stopping to say Hi to every person and dog she meets with a tall blonde gal trying to keep up – that would be us – stop & [...]

Poop Management

Posted by sdouma on September 14th, 2007

I work for the MAC and have noticed that dog owners are leaving poop on the fence and not taking it with them.  This is not acceptable.  Several of our senior staff have commented on that and are not pleased with the situation.  Please let everyone know that they need to take their poop home [...]

Get out and enjoy this wonderful weather

Posted by slugger on September 10th, 2007

It has been a pleasure enjoying this nice cool down, once temps fall below 65 or so my shepherd becomes a very active kid. Instead of looking for shade hes running everywhere looking to play….so get out of the house, and take the furry kids to the park for some fun and exercise..
