SHORTSVILLE, NY - DOG PARK

The Village of Shortsville, NY decided they wanted and needed a dog run.  They had a campaign for donations.  When they didn't meet the money they wanted, they used the money where they had to, got  donated man (and woman) power and scraped up the rest to make this beautiful park.  The fence was being replaced by a near by town - so they got it for free, and cleaned it up.  It goes around the park.  Work they had hoped hired done was done by the Boy Scouts and people that donated their time and power.  It took them a few years, but they got the job down and they have a beautiful dog run.

Pictures one and two are two hand carved bear carved out of wood that are in the entrance to the dog run.  They were made and donated by one of the residents of Shortsville.

Pictures three and four are the entrance to the park.

The rest of the pictures are of the dog park.  In the park are places for us human's to sit, too.  Also shown are some of the signs that are in the park.  It is all fenced in so you dog can't run into the road. It is a rather large park. There is no charge for you or your dog. 

I haven't taken Pierre there yet, but I hope to and hope we can bring one of his friends along, too.

PARK NEXT TO FARMER'S MARKET

The Farmer's Market is right next door to a park.  At the top is a man playing music.  Pictures 2, 3, and 4 are signs in the park.  Five is their water fall and six is their military honor.
