Eat. Play. Sleep. Play. Eat some more. More play. Sleep again. Repeat. The life of a dog is simple and sweet. They shower us with love and affection and only ask that we do the same.

For two years, residents Abby O’Bryan and Alisha Manning spent countless hours before City Council working on a Patronicity campaign and holding fundraisers around Alpena to get the wheels turning for an off-leash city dog park.

All those long hours and all the generous donations made our dog park possible!

Thomas Stafford Dog Park is located behind the Alpena Post Office at North Riverfront Park. The dog park provides a completely fenced-in area with a beautiful view of the Thunder Bay River, benches, a water spigot, mutt mitts, garbage receptacles, and plenty of tunnels and play space for making new friends!

Have you taken your furry compadre to the new dog park yet? Share your pics with the Thomas Stafford Dog Park Facebook page.
