1. EVERYONE (ALMOST) HAS AT LEAST ONE DOG
Recent studies show that over one third of all US households are home to at least one dog. That number is probably much higher here in Boise.
2. DOG PARKS BRING DOGS AND PEOPLE TOGETHER
Dog parks are awesome. They give dogs a chance to be off-leash, to run free, to sniff other dogs, and be around other people. They also give humans a chance to meet other humans while spending time with their canines.
3. DOGS, JUST LIKE HUMANS, ARE HAPPIER WHEN THEY GET PLENTY OF EXERCISE
Stressed? Upset? Restless? Get out there and get some exercise!
4. LOOK MA, NO LEASH!
In some areas leash laws are really strict. Dog parks are a great way to let dogs run free without fear of the man.
5. LESS DESTRUCTIVE BEHAVIOR AT HOME
When dogs get plenty of exercise they are less likely to dig, chew, and cause mischief at home.
6. OUTSIDE IS GOOD FOR EVERYONE
Getting out of the house, taking a break from the day, and enjoying some nature is great for you and your dog’s health.
7. FRESH AIR (DUH)
Air is pretty good for you. You should go outside and breathe some fresh.
8. PROMOTES RESPONSIBLE DOG OWNERSHIP
Dog parks make it easy to let your dog off-leash without bothering joggers, children, and folks who don’t like dogs.
9. GREAT FOR APARTMENT DWELLERS
No backyard? Head on over to the dog park!
10. THEY ARE A GREAT COMMUNITY RESOURCE
Well-exercised dogs are better neighbors because they bark less and aren’t as likely to eat the fence.
