The Yancey County Humane Society is thrilled to announce the opening of a beautiful community dog park at the Animal Shelter off Cane River School Road. This is not just any old dog park! The donor, who wishes to remain anonymous, had a vision of a future dog park and the result will amaze you.

Included in the park is a weather vane-crowned gazebo donated by Ollie Lantz in memory of her beloved husband Bill. A stone path leads to the gazebo and to a second fenced area with a picnic shelter. As you listen to the soothing sound of water cascading into a rock garden pool, you will look upon the lovely landscaped grounds, the nearby Cane River, and distant mountains.

YCHS extends deepest gratitude not only to the donors mentioned above but also to the following generous donors: B&W Stone, Beverly Hills Nursery, Carolina Native Nursery, Troy's Greenhouse, Mt. Mitchell Nursery, Autrey Tree and Landscaping, and Susan Hayden.

This dog park provides county residents with an area where they can spend quality time exercising their pets and sharing memorable moments with fellow pet owners. For the Animal Shelter it is wonderful to have a relaxing outdoor area where Shelter pets can meet and greet prospective adopters and where staff and volunteers can provide fresh air and exercise to Shelter pets awaiting adoption.

The dog park is now open to the public from 10 A.M. to sunset, 7 days a week. There is no fee to use the dog park. Needless to say there are Rules and Regulations to follow. Copies of these Rules and Regulations are attached to the dog park fence in a waterproof container. Please observe all posted informational signs because the success of the dog park relies upon each of you. If you have any questions, please call 682-9510.
