DOTHAN, Ala. — The City of Dothan officially celebrated the completion of the Forever Wild Dog Park with a ribbon-cutting ceremony, marking the end of a project that began in October 2024.
According to Dothan Leisure Services, the project was made possible through a partnership with the Forever Wild Land Trust and the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources.
Phase One opened in January 2026 and included approximately 3.7 acres of fenced dog park space with separate areas for large and small dogs, a pavilion and play amenities. The completion of restroom facilities as part of Phase Two officially finishes the project.
