AVK Hydrants in dog park in Nevada

Who let the dogs out?

Douglas County let the dogs out in their newly dedicated dog park on Johnson Lane in Minden, Nevada.

After several years of planning, Douglas County Parks and Recreation were able to get a much-needed dog park for the area. American AVK was approached to donate two hydrants for the park, and we jumped at the chance to be involved in the project.

The hydrants were then painted and decorated by the local Pinon Hills Elementary School students and installed in the new park for all to enjoy. I think we even got a “two paws” up review by the local dogs.

The dog park boasts an acre of lawn, young newly planted shade trees, and water stations for thirsty dogs. Dog waste collection stations are also provided for dog owners to help keep the park clean after their dogs have had a call to nature.
