Next to our resident bulletin board in the main clubhouse hallway leading to the pool area, we have placed two boards dedicated to our park pet owners with this header, shown in photo. Please feel free to use these boards as a resource for a point of reference for Lost or Found pets, a pet for Adoption or fun Photos you would like to share. Pretty much anything pet related. 

We all know owning a pet is a commitment that will last for many years, and one must be ready and willing to take on that responsibility. If you do, it’s likely you will be richly rewarded with one of the most satisfying, loving, and active relationships you’ll ever experience.Pet owners know that their furry friends offer unparalleled companionship. A growing body of research shows they also do much more. Owning a dog can prompt you to be more physically active—have leash, will walk. The health benefits of pet companionship, shows how having a pet can also reduce feelings of isolation and loneliness, help calm jagged nerves, and improve the lives of older individuals. 

Just petting a pet can lower the petter's blood pressure and heart rate (while having a positive effect on the pet as well). Pets can also foster human connections for their owners. Take a dog for a stroll and strangers who normally would not  approach you in any other situations will strike up a conversation centered on your pet. Even a mere smile from a passerby is a connection that can brighten your day.  That's a Win, Win for all.
