Stuck inside with ‘Cabin Fever’? Need to get out and about this weekend with your favourite four-legged friend?
Well thankfully now you can, as the majority of off-the leash dog parks have now reopened in the Cleveland/Akron area.
Dog Parks have been given the green light ahead of many other county facilities, such as playgrounds and gym equipment, as they have a lower risk of transmission.
Ohio’s Governor Mike DeWine has given the go-ahead for all off the leash dog parks to reopen in the majority of Northeast Ohio counties.
The team at PatchPets have reached out to many of the local counties across Northeast Ohio to confirm which counties have now reopened their dog parks in light of the relaxation of the state’s social distancing directive.
You can find your closest dog parks, pet businesses and other friendly fur friends, by downloading the Free PatchPets App for Apple iOS or Google Android.
Don’t forget to check for signs on gates and entries to ensure park areas are able to be used.
