Should Nantucket Pursue The Establishment Of A Fenced-In Dog Park
PublicDownloadable Content
open in viewerThe goal of this project was to determine the desirability and feasibility of a fenced-in dog park on Nantucket. Dog parks have become increasingly popular in the United States in recent years, due to their many health and educational benefits, but no dog park currently exists on Nantucket. Interviews with key stakeholders and extensive surveys of the public revealed overwhelming support for a dog park on Nantucket among people who do and do not own dogs. We recommended that the Town of Nantucket further pursue the establishment of a fenced-in dog park since it will serve a major role in educating people about dogs, associated environmental and health issues, and responsible dog ownership.
