Dog exercise trail

There is an item on the agenda of Monday’s Policy and Resources Committee which if approved will create a pilot dog exercising trail in Dawson Park. The trail will be a waymarked circuit of the park and owners will know how far they have walked their dog.   'Low tech’ agility features will be installed based on Forestry Commission good practice guidance and designs.
 
Dawson Park is always busy with people using the sports facilities and it is also very popular with dog walkers. The trail will seek to encourage owners to exercise their dogs in areas away from other more general areas of the park.
