This is a map of the southern edge of Lake Gregory. The south beach parking lot and San Moritz Drive are adjacent to the area. The dog park is on the right side of the image, shaded in green.

We would like to send a huge thanks out to Supervisor Biane for approving the dog park and allocating $200,000 for the project! Also, we'd like to thank Tom Potter for setting aside the land for our four-footed friends. We could not have made the dog park a reality without you!

The Grand Opening of the Lake Gregory Dog Park will take place on June 13, 2009! The event will be from 9:00am until 12:00pm, with the official ribbon cutting happening at 10:00am. Bring yourselves, bring your dog, and be there to celebrate this exciting new park!

Things are moving quickly on the dog park. Here is a current recap:

1. On May 2, Boy Scout Troop 251 is having a clean-up day/construction under the guidance of Scout Rennie Nance who has taken on the project to earn his Eagle Scout badge. They will be pulling up lots of low bushes, general clean-up and doing some leveling. I understand Ace Hardware in Crestline has donated concrete and tools to them for this project. We have three dogwood trees ordered and if they come in time, they will be planting them. We also have 3 park benches ordered and they will also be installing them if they come in time. If not, they will be doing this at a later date.

2. I need to thank all of the supporters who have donated a total of $2600 which is going to pay for the benches, trees, some fencing and donor board and plaques.

I have to also thank Bob Yeoman of Backyard Equestrian who will be installing the additional fencing to separate the large and small dog areas. The county ran out of money to do this.

Carl from Ace Hardware and Garden is also considering getting the additional fencing for me at cost and maybe some donated. I should know for sure by the end of the week.

I want to thank John Lascelles of Mountain Wholesale Tree Company who gave us a big discount on the trees, Christine Lee of Pawsitive Training who has designed and maintained the Lake Gregory Dog Park web site for over two years, Miriam Wiegel of Cuby Bakery for Dogs who donated and installed the poop bag receptacles, Larry McBee of McBee Engraving for doing the donor/support plaques at a great discount, the CCDA for handling the donations, Supervisor Paul Biane and SB County Park Director Tom Potter for making this possible, and the San Bernardino Tax Payers. I also want to thank the Crestline Humane Society for their large donation.

3. A gala grand opening is scheduled for June 13 which will coincide with the CCDA Garden Tour and will be put on their tour. I will have more details on that in a few weeks.

4. This project started three years ago this summer after I adopted my dog, Cassidy, from a no-kill shelter, when I contacted Tom Potter and asked about getting a dog park at Lake Gregory. He told me to see if there was any community interest. I then started a petition and got over 400 signatures. I also started a pledge campaign and got 80 responses. 75% of these folks have honored their pledges. The work day would make a good photo op and follow-up and you can interview my future eagle scout. I would really like an article prior to May 2 so folks know about it in case they want to come and check it out.

Give me a call if you have any further questions 338-0225. --- Doe

Have realistic expectations about your dog’s suitability for going to a dog park. If he isn’t polite or friendly with others, get help to change his behavior before you take him to a dog park. Dog parks are not a place to rehabilitate fearful or aggressive dogs or those that just don’t know how to play well with others.

Before you take your dog into a dog park, spend a few minutes watching the other dogs and how they are playing and interacting with others. If the dogs seem to be too rough in their play or are intimidating other dogs, come back some other time.

If your dog has never been around other dogs before – don’t go to a dog park until he’s had a chance to be around other dogs in other situations so you have a better idea of how he reacts to other dogs.

If you aren’t sure how your dog will behave, go to the park when it’s not busy. Most parks are busy in the morning or late afternoon/early evening.

Introduce your dogs to other dogs gradually – allow your dog to greet other dogs while he’s still in the separate entry area or let your dogs sniff around the fenced boundary.

Be careful entering a dog park gate. Other dogs tend to crowd around to greet arriving dog. This jostling and crowding can be quite intimidating to many dogs and may result in a skirmish, or worse. Do not linger in the double gated area. Walk in and close gates. Make sure the gate behind you is closed before you open the next gate. Remove your leash and encourage your dog to move away from the crowded gate area.

Do not take your small children or babies in strollers to a dog park. Dogs and children can easily frighten one another and bad things can happen to either of them in the blink of an eye.

Supervise your dog. This is not the time for you to be distracted talking with other owners or burying yourself in a book. You must be monitoring your dog’s activities to be sure she isn’t behaving badly and other dogs are not behaving badly toward her. This is another reason not to take young children – you can’t adequately supervise both dogs and kids at the same time.

Be particularly watchful of small dogs around big dogs. Don’t let big dogs frighten or threaten small dogs. Aggression between big and small dogs is especially likely to result in injuries to the small dog.

Pick up after your dog. You don’t want to step in another dog’s poop anymore than someone else wants to step in your dog’s mess.

If your dog seems to be fearful or is being “bullied” by other dogs, don’t let her stay, thinking she will “get over it”, that she will learn to “stand up for herself”. Chances are greater her behavior will get worse.

Don’t let other dogs threaten or scare your dog. If they won’t leave, then remove your dog.

If your dog is being a bully, being threatening or aggressive, or just seems to be overly excited, remove him from the park, either temporarily or permanently. It is not fair to put other dogs at risk. Make the safety of other dogs and people as high a priority as the safety of your own.

Know how to break up a dog fight. Direct Stop, a harmless but effective citronella spray or a small hand-held air horn are your best bets. Don’t try to pull her off by the collar, or get in the middle of the fight as this only adds to the general arousal and greatly increases either the dogs’ or your, chances of injury.

Always take your cell phone and have the phone number of the local animal control agency. Call animal control or the local police and report any aggressive person or dog that won’t leave the dog park. These individuals are dangerous to people and dogs.

Be knowledgeable about dog body postures, communication signals and social behavior. You should be able to recognize stress, tension, fear, play, threats and aggression. Know the difference between play (which can be very active and sound violent) and real threats. Know when to intervene and when to stay out of an interaction among dogs. If you feel uninformed about canine behavior, learn more before taking your dog to a park. Harm can come to your dog if you under-react as well as over-react.
