Birmingham's Dog Park Now Open

Just in time for the cold weather, Birmingham has officially opened. It will probably get much more use in the spring and summer months, but for those dogs who don't mind a little snow, it will be open year round.

The .85 acre park is located on Fourteen Mile just west of Cranbrook, just at the southeast edge of the Lincoln Hills Golf Course. It's open Monday to Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m, except for holidays. All dog owners using the park must have a valid dog license and tag on their dog at all times. Owners must be at least 18 years old and children between five and 17 must be with a parent or guardian. Children under five are not permitted for safety reasons.

For more information call 248-530-1700 or 248-530-1870 after hours and on weekends.
