ATTN: DOGGIE LOVERS!!!!

So the other day I found that article that talked about Milwaukee being an unfriendly dog city. MOst people thought that Milwaukee needed more dog parks. I agree....but I started getting dog lovers to call with organizations, events and websites for us lovers of the canines!!!

Here they are...
Parks
http://www.milwaukeedogparks.org

The Runway Dog Exercise Area near the airport. The Runway is 26 acres and completely fenced in so dogs can run free and play safe. There is also a separate fenced in area for small dogs and puppies.

Hi Erin - I suggest you and Sexie check out Muttland Meadows in Grafton. It's just a great fenced in plot of land where you and your dog can both socialize, and your doggy can roam safely "leash-free". I always find someone nice to talk to when I'm there, and Coco always has fun too. It's about 20 minutes north of KTI, just a couple miles off I-43. My dog and I LOVE it! Let me know if you need directions.
