We have been informed by the Morris County Park Commission that muddy conditions held up dog park repairs in late winter. Repair activities are expected to take approximately three weeks to complete and the dog park should open shortly after that. The items being addressed at this time include:
- parking lot expansion;
- application of crushed stone in high use areas; and
- re-seeding.
In the meantime, enjoy the Morris County Dog Park at Lewis Morris Park. Additionally, you can also get some excersize and take an on-leash hike with your dog in one of Morris County’s parks. They have many great hiking trails. See http://www.morrisparks.net/ for more information.
Do not forget what this winter was like.
With a few warm wet days earlier in the week, the winter’s heavy base of snow was finally yielding to the sun, grass and mud. What was left on the dog park’s surface was a very slick ice, which at times was treacherous to navigate. It wasn’t the most inviting environment, but the temperatures in the upper 30’s and a strong sun, Scraps and Rags were due for some dog park action.
