I pay a lot in taxes for the privilege of living in this community and I don't think it's unreasonable to expect the county to provide the same amenities to Perry Hall as other communities in the county!
Much more money is needed in order to make Perry Paw Dog Park a reality.
Police responded to an attack between leashed dogs Saturday afternoon in Perry Hall.
A walk in the park turned violent Saturday afternoon. A dog on a leash attacked another dog on a leash at about 3:10 p.m. on Nov. 17, at Honeygo Run Regional Park in the 9000 block of Honeygo Boulevard in Perry Hall, according to Capt.

No one was arrested or charged in the incident. No further information on the breeds of dogs involved was available as of Monday morning. Honeygo Run Regional Park is…

Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Shelter showcased rescued dogs at Pet Valu on Saturday.
Wearing vests that read "ADOPT ME," a small group of rescued dogs greeted customers at the Pet Valu in Honeygo Village Center on Saturday afternoon. They were joined by volunteers and foster pet parents during one of Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Shelter's Dog Adoption Days. Volunteer Melissa Trotman said she tries to organize adoption events at least once a month and has held several at Pet Valu. "They love it here," Trotman said. "Today we took them all for walks at Honeygo Run to get them some exercise before the event." Most of the dogs up for adoption are pit bull mixes, she said, adding that despite the breed's aggressive reputation, volunteers find them to be "sweet, gentle" and "great family dogs." Christy Fear fosters Bumble …

Pending fundraising efforts, Baltimore County's third dog park will be located at Honeygo Run Regional Park along Honeygo Boulevard.

Follow Perry Hall Patch on Facebook and Twitter. A grassroots movement to construct a Perry Hall dog park started in April 2011 when Patch pet columnist Tammy Zaluzney wrote about dog parks and their value to communities. After commenters asked if a dog park could ever be constructed in Perry Hall, she started the Perry Hall Dog Park Facebook group. The proposed dog park quickly gained support among community members, county and state elected officials and the Perry Hall …

Of course they stand on the track. Venture more than a few inches off the pavement and be prepared to clean the dog poop off of your shoes. BTW, the track is convenient, but it is also populated with people with dogs (and it is not unusual to see dog poop on or near the track), kids on bikes/scooters, people walking 4-5 lanes abreast on the inside lanes. As with the road, on the track slower … more ›
