Hillsborough Adds Safe Place For Dogs, Owners

»  Comments | Post a Comment

Bryce Levy has a spot where he likes to hang out with his buddy Bo.

They generally go there two or three times a week to get together with friends.

Bo, a German shepherd-American bulldog mix, spends his time catching Frisbees, chasing balls and running around with other dogs.

Levy, 24, enjoys playing with Bo and speaking with other dog lovers.

They're among the regulars at the Carolyn Meeker Dog Park in Lutz. It is the newest county dog park, joining two others - Logan Gate and West Park - in northwest Hillsborough and at the Mango Recreation Center.

Although the park is designed to give dogs a place to run and have fun, it's also a great place for dog lovers to make friends and share information, Levy said.

Signs and posters at the park advertise local groomers and pet sitters. Some posters seek help to find lost pets.

Each of the dog parks is about 5 acres, with a chain-link fence and double gated entries, and separate areas for large and small dogs.
