    A snippet of dog history.

    Dogs were first domesticated from wolves at least 17,000 years ago, but perhaps as early as 150,000 years ago based upon recent genetic fossil and DNA evidence. In this time, the dog has developed into hundreds of breeds with a great degree of variation.

    Dog Park for a Day with Foster Awareness Bake Sale and Flea Market

    Saturday, November 8, 11 am - 2 pm

    This event is free to all members as well as your friends, colleagues, and neighbors. All friendly dogs 4 months and older with proof of rabies vaccination are welcome to attend.

    The Dog Park has invited local shelters and rescue groups to fundraise with bake sales and flea market tables and to give out information about fostering and helping homeless animals. Some dogs from these groups will be at the park, available for adoption.

    Read more here about how you can help homeless animals and foster families.

    Welcome!

    Thank you for visiting the Greater Lafayette Association homepage. The Dog Park Association of Greater Lafayette was organized to create and operate a fenced-in, off-leash dog area in Tippecanoe County, Indiana where well behaved dogs and their owners can socialize and exercise in a clean, safe environment without endangering or disturbing people, property, or wildlife, while creating a greater sense of community by fostering social interaction between citizens within the dog park and reducing encounters with citizens apprehensive to the presence of dogs off leash in other public park areas and promoting the humane treatment of animals.
