Elizabethtown Set To Open First Public Dog Park

WKU Public Radio

It’s a problem facing many dog owners who don’t have a big backyard or live an apartment: finding a place to let dogs spend their energy running without a leash. 

On October 4th in Elizabethtown, the city will open its first dog park at Freeman Lake Park just off Nalls Road.

Current mayor Edna Berger says the idea for a dog park came from the late Elizabethtown Mayor Tim Walker, who died suddenly of a heart attack last year.

The grand opening takes place October 4th and Friends of the Hardin County Animal Shelter will be on hand to promote pet adoptions.

The award-winning news team at WKU Public Radio consists of Dan Modlin, Kevin Willis, Lisa Autry, and Joe Corcoran.
