Community Members,

We believe that recreation comes in all forms, from leisure facilities to playfields to playgrounds for all, even dogs. Recently, the City of Hernando has shown great interest in establishing the first off-leash dog park in the area. Much of the success of the Hernando Dog Park will be its locations in the Desoto County. At this time the closets do parks in proximity to Desoto County, MS are located in the Memphis, TN area.

With your help, the Hernando Dog Park Committee, working on behalf of the Hernando Parks & Recreation Foundation would like to build a dog park in the City of Hernando for our 4-legged friends and family members. The park will be located just south of the Hernando Town Square at Renasant Park, adjacent to the new skate park, an ideal location for an off-leash dog park as it is both accessible and cost-effective. The City of Hernando has designated the land for the park, and we are fundraising to cover the cost of fencing, gates and other amenities. Our goal is $25,000 to complete the dog park, and this is where you come in.

Hernando Parks & Recreation Foundation is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit. We will recognize donors on our website and Facebook page.

Our residents need a park where they can walk, run and socialize their dogs in a safe environment. Can we count on your support?
