Dog Park Survey Results
Attached you will find the results of the Dog Park Survey done by the City of Oviedo.
We are very excited to see the number of cities and counties interested in Dog Parks. The
overwhelming response is if a city/county does not currently have a dog park they either are
currently developing one or requested this survey information to take further action in planning a
dog park!
Sixty-seven cities and counties responded to our survey. However, due to recent current
events, there has been a policy change in the way the Oviedo Recreation and Parks Department
receives mail. Many additional cities and counties responded to our survey, but we were unable
to put them in our survey because we could not identify from where the survey was sent.
Answers were filled in- with-info rmat ion- provided by-thevarious -cities -and.counties: - Blank- --.------
spaces are due to lack of information at this time. There are several locations included in this
survey that are not currently planning a dog park, but with additional information they to hope to
be planning a dog park in the near future. It appears that this type of recreation facility is both
wanted and needed in many Florida communities.
Should you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact me at your
convenience, 407-977-6078. Thank you for taking the time from your hectic schedules to aid in
our survey. We appreciate your efforts and wish you a happy holiday season.

WELCOME TQ,BARK PARK @
SNYDER PARK
. On behalf of the Friends of Bark park at Snyder Park, Inc., and the
wonderful Snyder Park staff, Welcome! This is the City of Fort Lauderdale's
first park designed with dogs in mind Our group has worked together with
the City for nearly two years to develop the concept and design of the park.
We have also sought out community sponsors who have helped us purchase
many of the "extras" for the park.
Wha~ you see today is, Qle result of our cqmbined efforts. But its not
the end of our work. As a community based organizations, we are committed
to continuing to support Bark park with ongoing programs and improve-
ments for you and your pets. We are also working on special events and
education programs that will begin in a few weeks.
Thank you for visiting Bark Park. We have enjoyed making what
was a widely held dream into a barkin' good time.
. ,l
For more uuonhation about joining the Friends of Bark Park, as an
individual, family or business, please see the related story in this newsletter
or speak to the Park staff.

interested in short presentations or actual week-ta-week programs
(such as agility or obedience)? Would you like to see the park offer
programs in: Pet First Aid, Obedience, Doggie Dental Care, etc.
Some programS' (such as ongoing obedience training) may have a fee.
Are there other things that would be of interest? If so, please let the
park staff know.
PARK P'OSITIONS
AVAILABLE
Training has begun for any-
one interested in helping to operate
Bark park Because the park is open
84 hours each week (that's 12 hours
each day, seven days a week) the staff-
ingneeds of the park are considerable.
While there are always employees lo-
cated throughout Snyder Park, the
park management hopes to staff the
actual dog park site during all hours
of operation, and volunteers can make
this happen.
For a small donation of time,
volunteers will receive a "good dog"
pass (free admission) for use at the
park. Volunteers can spend as little as
one hour and as much as 8 hours at
the park. Bark Park volunteers will
assi:st with,pab:on sign ,ins,. ,~(Lc~.
also help out with Education pro-
-grains or specfal' park events. 'First' .
and last shift volunteers will also
handle some of the opening and clos-
ing responsibilities.
To sign up as a volunteer, ar-,
range training or get additional infor-
mation, please contract the park of-
fice at (954) 468-1585.

One of the ways that Bark Park will cOntinue to provide a clean and friendly environment for your pets
is through program sponsorship. Local sponsors have helped to underwrite many of the park struc:tures already
in place, as well as the education programs that will begin in the near future. -:.,"

1. Dogs must be on a leash in the parking lot and on the way in and out of the park. Owners must carry a leash
, while in Bark Park. '
