October 2020 Newsletter

1. Our in-person Fundraisers in the Dog Park had been cancelled due to Covid-19 but we still need your donations to pay for the poop bags and other supplies. Please go to the ShirlingtonDogs.org website and click on "Donate" to make your tax-deductible contribution with a credit card or PayPal.

2. Please note that the Shirlington Dog Park closes at sunset.  Everyone and their dogs MUST be out of the park by then.  The closest dog park that has lights and is open later is Ft Bernard, which is up the hill on Walter Reed Drive.  See the link on our site for details and list of other dog parks that are open later: https://shirlingtondogs.org/resources

3. The dog park welcomes a new corporate sponsor, Matt Mendelsohn Photography.  One of his specialties is portraiture of dogs with their owners. Check out mattmendelsohn.com.

4. Wear a face mask and keep at least six feet away from others while in the dog park for the protection of everyone and to keep the park open. A full list of guidelines are posted at the park and on the Shirlington Dogs website.

5. Pick Up After Your Dogs.  Please be sure to follow all the other dog park rules including picking up after your dogs. Thank you.
