  • Natalie PetSafe 05/06/2013 Hi Auburn, thank you so much for your participation in Bark For Your Park. While reviewing your documents, we noticed you have civic leader support for a park but no true land verification. We know the document mentions a location but need more firm communication that the property can be used if you win. Let us know if you have any questions by emailing dogpark@petsafe.net. Good luck!
