Four paws vote "yea" for the Ada Dog Park.
A sign promoting the park has been installed at the Ada Railroad Park to show residents the layout of the future dog park, and the sign tells how to give a donation toward the park's construction.
Brittany Sorrell and Titan, a 2-year-old Great Dane, are in favor of a place for dogs to exercise, socialize, and have fun off-leash. Putting the finishing touches on the sign are Jimmy Wilson and Ken Lauria, both members of the dog park planning committee.
Hopefully, the the 100' x 300' park for dogs will be ready next summer at Ada War Memorial Park.
