Fencing at the dog beach? 

Gerry has been a tripawd since 12/16/2009.

He was a shelter dog with a mysterious past and an irrepairable knee injury.

Videos and pics of Gerry's pawesomeness can be found at: http://gerry.tripawds.com

Gerrysmom...

The dog beach is fenced in.....kind of...The shoreline, particularly at the south end(adjacent to the regular beach) is constantly changing. Worse in the past couple of years with the erratic weather. The blizzard trashed the end of the fence & there is now easy access to the regular beach. The fence is an ongoing issue between the city,county and DFA, and who's responsible...Since everyone is broke and every year it needs major repair...it's not getting fixed. A lot of people use the people beach for their dogs in the morning anyway....me included...The other 3 sides are OK.

That is the only area you'd have to worry about and that portion of the regular beach is pretty large, but not that close to the access street, which is blocked by a wall up to the far south end. There is a website http://www.mondog.org

I'd love to bring Gerry this time and to just be careful about the fence issue, but we had to miss our last two visits to the nursing home and we'd miss again if we came down this Sunday, so I'll just have to cross Gerry's paws that we can make it to your next Chicago pawty.  Have a great time all!  Happy birthdays and ampuversary!!!
