City Bark Groundbreaking: SLIDESHOW

NOLA City Bark, the city’s first large-scale dog park hosted their official groundbreaking this morning in City Park. Donors, sponsors and dog lovers were all in attendance with their furry friends. Excitement was definitely in the air as City Bark President Jackie Shreves announced the official groundbreaking and everyone helped celebrate with a dog second line and plenty of dog biscuits! City Bark hopes to open officially in late Fall 2009.
