Dog Park

Does Hays have any sort of dog park? We have been watching a ton of The Dog Whisperer lately, and I think our dogs would really benefit from a place like that.

let me know when you find it so I can be sure to stay away from it. mostly likely it will become covered with "landmines"

Speaking of "landmines", confuse your cat, crap in "his" litterbox.

sure hays has a dog park. it is called the campus of fort hays state university.

There is a dog park in Hays and it seems its my front yard. I don't know how many "piles" i have seen accumulate in my front yard from people walking their dogs. I guess I need to start lining my yard of ex-lax that way the dogs can move on to another yard and leave their "piles".

I didn't think dogs were forbidden in any Hays park. Or do you mean a special place for dogs only? I've never seen a dog park, but it brings up visons of fake fire hydrants, carpet runs to drag butts across, lots of plastic legs for the amorous pup, a big tub of cat poo for the gourmets, and of course decaying skunk carcasses and fresh cow plops for lots of rolling pleasure.

Basically it is a very large fenced in area that you can allow your dog to come in and run with other dogs, play etc.

Are there even any fences around playgrounds anymore? How about the ball diamonds?Once a few pups made deposits it could give a whole new meaning to a slide.

haha thats not nice.

I'd think a dog park would go well here.... just don't know where you would put one.

Is this what you had in mind?

We could have Doggie Poetry reading, too.

that might be a little much, justoo LOL

Hays spends money to block our view of traffic, er I mean beautify Vine street with trees, why not close off a piece of ground for dogs? Maybe Chelsea Clinton could even "speak" during the grand opening and bite the ribbon in two.

problem is, we would have to rely on the city to maintain it... etc

Oh crap.. Right this minute there's a dog named "Chalcy" on Animal Planet. Yeah NB, I was wondering who'd scoop all the poop, and mow and such.

I would imagine you would be expected to pick up after your dog as you are in most parks now. City would mow. And paint the hydrants. And patch the postman.

Fresh dog doo doo, when lawn mower runs over smells wonderfull.

If we could have a dog park,I'd take care of it!!!LOL
