The grand opening of Miami Lakes’ K-9 Cove has been scheduled from 10 to 11 a.m. on Saturday, October 21.
K-9 Cove is located at 14048 Palmetto Frontage Road (N.W. 77 Court) and features both a passive recreational area and two separate fenced areas for smaller and larger dogs. The area will include benches, drinking fountains for dogs, and a joint open-air shelter for pet owners.
In addition, the site incorporates a portion of the proposed 10-foot wide bike trail along the south side of Palmetto Frontage Road.
The K-9 Cove name for the new recreational area was submitted by Miami Lakes resident Damian Hernandez, the winner of a naming contest coordinated by the Friends of the Dog Recreation Area Group.
Several of the Town’s animal care professionals will be in attendance to distribute materials and free giveaways including Dog House Miami and Miami Lakes Veterinary Clinic.
