Puddles - Monday, March 21, 2010

We're going to keep track of the puddles until our drainage project is approved by the Parks Department. You can see more photos and join our Flickr group HERE

With Spring Showers, McCarren Dog Run gets large puddles in both runs.

It is never a good idea to let your dog drink stagnate water (even if it is in a bowl), eat mud or play with toys or sticks that have been exposed to dog waste.

Please help spread the word by referring dog owners to the website especially this post
http://mcdogrun.blogspot.com/2009/06/your-dog-stagnant-water-not-good.html and encourage others to sign up for the google group at the website.

If your dog gets giardia or leptosporosis or is experiencing abnormally loose stool, take them to the vet as soon as possible and please send an email to mcdogrun@gmail.com letting us know the outcome.

As you may know, we are lobbying the Parks Department to allow us to install a dry well/french drain in the large run which would stop these puddles so being able to document what we all believe to be try is important.

Please spread the word as there are always people who don't know about giardia or leptospo
