Many of you may have noticed some significant improvements at the Nancy Mockler Dog Park recently! We are thrilled to share the story behind our new agility obstacles and invite you to their dedication ceremony.
The Story Behind the Obstacles
In early 2024, the Dog Handling Facility at F.E. Warren Air Force Base was scheduled for closure and demolition. This meant that the timeless agility obstacles, used for many years to train brave Military Working Dogs, were also slated to be destroyed.
Fortunately, it was decided that these valuable training tools could be put to better public use! For over a year, the Cheyenne Animal Shelter worked closely with F.E. Warren, and the obstacles were finally delivered to us this past July.
Ribbon Cutting & Dedication Ceremony
Please join us to officially celebrate this amazing addition!
To honor the lasting partnership between the Cheyenne Animal Shelter and F.E. Warren Air Force Base, we will host a:
What: Ribbon Cutting and Dedication Ceremony
When: Wednesday, December 17th at 1:00 PM
Where: Nancy Mockler Dog Park
These unique obstacles will be dedicated to all working dogs and their courageous handlers who stand in harm's way.
There will also be a demonstration from a Military Working Dog team who will run the new obstacle course. Because there will be working dogs onsite, we will have to close the dog park from 12-2 to make time for the set-up and cleanup of the park.
