Dog parks throughout the community
could really bring the people of Benson and also Cochise County together. Imagine
a nice bright day, a little wind going to make it nice and cool, all for your
dogs to waste it away because they have nowhere else to go. With adding a dog
park to Benson it gives a chance for your fury little friend to get out the
house and into the sun for the much needed exercise they deserve. By allowing them
to have their own park it could help socialize your best friend so they are not
being bored inside your house all day. This park will also get owners out of
the house as well, with having the owners come out of the house more often to
spend a little time outside running around with their dog catching some sun
light is not too bad for their health also.
With our community creating a dog
park in the city so for example at Apache park near the school, the great big
green lot could be useful instead of it just sitting there where no one goes
anyway except to watch the parade on the 4th of July. The whole park
doesn’t need to become the dog park just a piece of land will do fine nothing
to big and nothing to small. This could also help the local businesses out too.
As the people of Benson know there is a lot of snow birds that come down for
the winter and I’m willing to bet that they all have dogs or people traveling
in general will have dogs. With a little advertising around the highway also
around town it could possibly bring in more out of town people which means more
business and money flowing into our local shop owners.
