A Spinoff Series from Dog Save The People about Dog Parks


About The Episode

Many dog parks today still resemble the traditional fenced-in spaces established almost 50 years ago.

However, our understanding of how dogs think and the number of dogs in American households have grown considerably in the last few decades.

Humans have also become increasingly isolated due to the usage of digital technologies and the decline of public spaces for real-life interactions.

Through it all, dog parks remain one of the few enduring third places that attract all types of people. It’s more important than ever to build out from the dog park paradigm, to strengthen community ties and raise appreciation for the beauty of nature.

This show is produced by As It Should Be Productions, the creators of the Dog Save The People and Dog Walk Meditation podcasts.
