Yesterday, the Beneful Dream Team unveiled its first Dream Dog Park, and we were there! The $500,000 dog park makeover in the Atlanta area was all made possible when Pat McNeely and his dog Koda were named Grand Prize winners in the Beneful WagWorld Dream Dog Park Contest and provided the inspiration for the renovation.
No dream dog park is complete without features that provide both fun and function, like this doggie-sized drinking fountain.
Or this giant bone-shaped ramp with tunnels. That's Koda resting in the shade underneath.
A closer look at the lovely Koda, a Siberian Husky, on this hot day at the Newtown Dream Dog Park in Johns Creek -- near Atlanta, Ga.
Next, we had the chance to chat with Jason Cameron, TV design personality and head designer for the park renovation. Cameron talks about some of the park's most interactive and unique elements, including the bone bridge and water splash pads.
Cosmo says agility features are a must for a dream dog park. Cosmo gives the "tire" a test run.
And then there was the water feature, our favorite for hot Atlanta summer days!
Truly interactive, the water splash pads are enjoyed by dogs, kids and grown-ups!
And a great place to grab a drink... the ultimate dog bar!
Another nice feature is the separate small dog area, with scaled down versions of the splash pads and tunnels.
Poodle siblings share some refreshment in the small dog area!
It was a fabulous day, and all made possible because Pat McNeely entered the Beneful Dream Dog Park contest a year ago. We had the chance to chat with Pat, too.
Now in its second year, there's still time to enter this year's Beneful Dream Dog Park contest. From now through June 21, the contest invites dog owners to get creative and answer the question: If you had $500,000 to spend to create the ultimate dream dog park, what would you do? The Grand Prize includes a half-million dollar makeover of your community dog park, a $10,000 cash award and one year supply of Beneful brand dog food. So get dreaming and enter here!
Thanks Beneful for an amazing opportunity to share the adventure. We feel a house is not a home without a dog, and a dog park is not complete without plenty of dogs and humans to share the adventure. Dog pawty ON!

ReplyDeleteBeneful Dor Park is a nice play. Had I lived near the place, I will take my pet dog for some pet and master bonding. Both of us need exercise. The place is also a social spot where people to people interaction as well as dog to dog interaction are encouraged. People are social beings and dogs too are social beings. dog boarding cleveland

I also think when we put ourselves and our beliefs out on the internet we take the chance of having people disagree with us. For some reason everyone feels it is there place to 'call someone out' on social media, but that rarely gets the desired results.dog bed wholesale
ReplyDeleteI am one of the people who took offense to the dog in the costume. Maybe offense is not the right word, but it is upsetting to me and I'll tell you why. You know your dog and I know mine. Our dogs might be okay participating in a situation like that and we are good, responsible dog owners.Dog park

ReplyDeleteMost proprietors are energized, some are terrified, and some are presumptuous, however regardless of their identity, or what they improve the situation a living, there is nothing very as scary for them as washing their very own dog out in the open!
ReplyDeleteThis is such an excellent post. You are honest and realistic about what you are dealing with and I appreciate that. Some people don't understand why I am so careful with Luke around strangers. He has never bit anyone, and I will do everything I can to make sure that never happens. I believe it's all fear based and we're working on things but we'll do it at a pace that I think works for him.
ReplyDeleteBut here’s the thing, it makes a world of a difference when a cat needs exercise, and it’s important to understand why cats need exercise. If you want them to live a healthier and happier life, you need to get them both physically and mentally engaged.

ReplyDeleteIt's a good idea to visit multiple breeders and compare their practices, the condition of their cats, and the environment in which the cats are raised. This will give you a broader perspective and help you make an informed decision. siberian cats
ReplyDeleteFor adventurous pets and their owners, accessories like backpacks, pet tents, and life jackets enable safe and enjoyable outdoor activities. These accessories are particularly useful for hiking, camping, boating, and other outdoor adventures, allowing pets to join in the fun while being protected and comfortable. Pet accessories
ReplyDeleteYou may go outside and mingle with your dog in dog parks. You are well aware of the importance of socializing in effective training. That may have been discussed here a few (or twelve) times! However, your dog isn't the only one who gets to socialize at the dog park. It's a fantastic location to make friends who also enjoy dogs. Being able to use your dog as a buffer might really help you come out of your shell if you're very timid (like I am!). Sometimes it's simpler to start a discussion about your adorable dog than it is about you.
