⚠️IMPORTANT WEATHER UPDATE⚠️

⚠️ IMPORTANT COSTUME CONTEST NOTE ⚠️

With temperatures forecast to be hot tomorrow, the Costume Contest is still on — but your dog’s health and safety come first.

Please consider the temperature, your dog’s breed, age, health, costume and individual tolerance for heat before participating.

No prize is worth risking your dog’s health.

If it is too warm for your pup to safely participate, please sit this one out. There will always be another contest. There is only one of your dog. ❤️🐾

We’ll see everyone tomorrow — stay cool, we will have lots of water, and put the pups first!

Come on out, support a great cause and have a little fun.

Twenty-five years.

Approximately 1.22 MILLION p**p bags purchased for the Orange Dog Park.

That’s a whole lot of dogs, a whole lot of walks, and a whole lot of cleanup. 😂💩

More importantly, it is a reminder of how much this community has carried the Park over the years.

To every person who has donated, contributed, sponsored, or chipped in along the way — thank you. Those donations helped make it possible for us to keep buying the bags, maintaining the Park and keeping this place going year after year.

1.22 million bags later...we’re still fetching as ever.
