A ribbon cutting to celebrate the opening of Stafford County’s first dog park will be held at 10 a.m. on Saturday, June 6, 2015, at Duff McDuff Green Memorial Park in Falmouth, VA.
Visitors are invited to bring their four-legged friends to enjoy the new facility after the ceremony. There are three separate parks available: one for small dogs less than 30 pounds, another for large dogs more than 31 pounds, and an open area for long distance ball throwing and retrieval.
Laurie Williams of Pup-N-Iron and her staff will be onsite Saturday morning at 10 a.m. and will offer tips on successfully socializing your pet into an off-leash dog park as well as tips on understanding the body language of dogs.
The small dog park is full of shade for the puppies and has agility equipment for them to use. It is approximately 7,500 sq. ft. There are toys, water bowls, benches and leash posts available as well. There is also appropriately sized agility equipment for the small dogs to use.
The large dog park is 15,000 sq. ft. There are benches and leash posts available within this area as well.
The long distance ball retrieval area is not fully enclosed by a fence. There is a fence on three sides of this area but the Rappahannock River and the stream leading to it act as a natural boundary to the south.
The dog park is open from 8 a.m. – 8 p.m. until October 31. Duff’s dog park is located at 75 James Ashby Parkway, Falmouth, VA 22405.
