One link closer to opening Richland dog park

Dakota Musick, with Frontier Fence of Pasco, uses a winch to tighten chain-link fencing Thursday at the Paws-abilities Place off-leash dog park in south Richland.

He is working on the expansion project for the second phase of the five-acre park off Englewood Drive.

The project is expected to be finished in July.

The existing large dog area was closed last fall for a grounds improvement project and will likely reopen in June, about three weeks before the new section.
