We are running a survey on the perceptions and use of dog parks and we need your input!
Great news from the IRS! They have approved our application and we are officially a 501(c)(3) organization!
We are starting with a survey of people’s perceptions about Dog Parks.
What do you like about your primary dog park? What do you not like about it?
We have formally incorporated as the New England Dog Park Coalition and we are pending our 501(c)(3) status with the IRS.
Keep an eye on this site as 2025 starts for Big NewsTM
With Big News come some Big Changes to the site, the content, and – well – everything!
With the idea of presenting the results of the survey and kicking off the Coalition, we’re putting together a virtual conference to be held in the Winter 2020/2021 timeframe.
The agenda of the conference should be of interest to both groups which are looking to build new park(s) and groups which maintain the current parks in the state.
To kick off the foundation of the Massachusetts Dog Park Coalition, we have adapted a survey which was run the a single group (the Chelmsford Dog Association) a few years ago. We’ve expanded the questions to cover many of the parks in Massachusetts and to gather information on the Usage, Perceived Benefits and Successes of dog parks in the state.
Welcome to the site which will eventually host the content for the Massachusetts Dog Park Coalition.
The MassDPC is intended to be a learning and sharing group for those who manage and maintain dog parks around Massachusetts.
