Fargo ND indoor dog park

Donation protected
Fargo has a need for an indoor dog park. Simple as that.

                Having reached out to the city multiple times it seems there isn’t much interest in funding one. As a result as a business major I intend to establish North Dakota’s Largest indoor dog park. I have the concept, there is a need and there is an opportunity to improve the Fargo Moorhead area. I personally feel that this needs to be addressed. Additionally through a Facebook group I was able to drum up interest as well as support and suggestions.

                I intend to start this venture as soon as possible. The problem is I personally don’t have the funds to get this started. My intention is to create this as a non profit organization that will partner with other organizations to improve grooming, adoptions and education.

                I intend to use the feedback that I receive to improve the features and offerings of the dog park. When the time comes, I will manage with a qualified board of directors and public feedback expanding to address the similar need in other communities.

                The establishment will consist of year round activities ranging from: swimming/ splashpad, grooming, agility “toys”, adoption events and other features that only a facility like this could offer.

                Of course there would need to be a way to operate and cover the associated costs, as a result there would be a series of subscriptions as an example $30 per dog per month, $75 for a 3 month membership, $150 for a yearly plan. Each plan would be based on a single dog, with other discounted rates for multiple dogs. Much like a gym membership each guest would receive a key fob, to gain access and secure storage.

Many other features will be included as this currently is in a concept phase.

                For donors (upon opening the establishment/ facility):

                                $100 donation                   name and recognition on a donor wall/ plaque

                                $500 donation                   photo of your dog on the wall/ décor

                                $1000 donation                equipment with name plate “Donated with support by ___”

$2500 donation                hand drawn/ painted portrait of you and your dog on special décor

If the raised money isn't enough to get this started the funds will be donated to local animal based charities to help offset the costs and needs of their operation(s) in hopes of helping animals get the attention, exercise and recreation they need.
