Potsdam Community Dog Park

Potsdam Community Dog Park A community where neighbors meet and dogs have fun! Open everyday from dawn until dusk. Welcome to the Potsdam Community Dog Park page! Thank you for "liking" it.

The Potsdam Humane Society has donated land behind the shelter to host a fenced dog park for safe, off-leash exercise and play for our community's canine population, and for us humans to meet and support responsible dog ownership. Even though we're now open (yay!) we always need to raise money to apply for various matching grants, re-fill our emergency funds, and to pay for needed expenses such as

insurance, mowing, plowing, garbage and any repairs. PLEASE HELP by sending your tax-deductable donations to:

The Potsdam Community Dog Park
17 Madrid Avenue
Potsdam, NY 13676
(Check payable to Potsdam Community Dog Park)

Or visit www.potsdamdogpark.org to donate and to sign up for email notifications. Thank you,
The Dog Park Committee

It's with sadness that we inform you that the Potsdam Humane Society has decided to terminate our lease, and the Potsdam Community Dog Park will close at its current location on or before September 1st.
We are looking for a new home, so if you have any ideas, please email [email protected]
We want to take a moment to thank everyone who has ever donated or volunteered for the dog park. You have made many dogs (and people) very happy.
We hope to continue our mission at a new address soon.
If you want to support, please consider:
🐾 Joining our email list (scroll to the bottom of our homepage) https://www.potsdamdogpark.org/
🐾 Making a donation (which will help us with relocation costs and continue with our mission of having a free, accessible dog park for our community)
Thank you for your support. We'll post an update here when we have more news to share!

EDIT:
Nutmeg had to be euthanized because her kidney and lungs were failing. Our companion animals are our family. This would be devastating.

Thank you to all who donated.

We just purchased this house this month and were in the process of… Antoinette Butler needs your support for Funds for Nutmeg's recovery after our house fire

REVISED: all is safer now. Pest control dealt with the hanging paper wasp nest. Please continue to be careful about wasp nests throughout the North Country of course!

To the young man and his mother who were here yesterday and were stung I hope so much that you are OK.

Please STAY OUT OF THE LARGE PARK TODAY, Wednesday!!! Ground wasp nest. Will be taken care of.

The Potsdam Community Dog Park wishes Alysia Maynard well! She has been a park advocate and generous supporter through the whole time when we were clearing, having our park openings, and beyond. We are losing a dear friend, even though she's going to another job she will also love and she'll have more time with family, but still...! WE WILL MISS YOU, ALYSIA!!!

FUNDRAISER! Dear Dog Parkers! Thanks to Leila and Matt, we now have a continual source of funds! Please put your 5¢ returnables in the black bins with the yellow lids! Matt Randall donated the bins and signage and Leila Thurston will turn in the bottles & cans.

AND WAIT, THERE'S MORE! You can also bring your larger bags of returnables directly to the Griff's Beverage Potsdam (formerly CJ's) in the Seacomm Plaza, 145 Market St. Just tell them you want them to donate to the Potsdam Community Dog Park and you don't have to wait for them to be counted! You can also drive around to the back and ring the buzzer and someone will help you if you have many bags.

THANK YOU ALL!
