INDIANAPOLIS -- Dog lovers across the United States will be casting their votes over the next six weeks to decide which park will receive a Dream Dog Park makeover through the Beneful Dream Dog Park promotion and our very own Broad Ripple Bark Park is one of the finalists.

You can help decide which of the seven parks will receive $30,000 for park improvements. The dog park with the most votes will also receive dog park equipment worth $5,000 and hands-on volunteer support from the Beneful Dream Dog Park team.

The Broad Ripple Bark Park was established in 1999 as Indianapolis’ first dog park. It’s a two-acre park that is a popular place for dogs and their owners to socialize with one another.

You can vote once a day through November 1.

Dog parks from seven communities are finalists:

  • Boomer Street Dog Park near Milwaukee, Wisconsin;
