Many thanks and gratitude go to the Spring Hill Central Rotary Club for their efforts in finding funding for the first dog park in the area, located off Landover in Spring Hill, Hernando County, Florida. The opening has been planned for the middle of January 2009, and will include 3 separate enclosures depending on the size of your dog. Large dogs in one enclosure, medium to small dogs in another and service animals in the third, for those that choose to leash their dog, there is a dog walk area. Once the park opens, it will be monitored to ensure that the human guests follow the rules, by keeping control of their pets and cleaning up after them.

Here are some of the properties that are located off Landover in Spring Hill, Fl near the new doggie park.
