As the largest city in the fastest growing county in California, Roseville gains hundreds of new families each month.  And about one-third of these families have at least one dog.  As the city grows it is important that the dog parks grow as well.

Roseville presently has three dog parks.  Marco Dog Park opened in 1997 and at the time was an usual amenity for a city to have.  A second dog park Bear Dog Park opened in 2006 and is a year round dog park.  The third dog park is within William "Bill" Hughes Park.  It opened  in 2007 and is also year round.

The City Of Roseville approved a large expansion area, called the West Roseville Specific Plan area (WRSP).  It will eventually add about 25,000 new residents as well as commercial and industrial uses.  This area is now constructing new homes, eventually shopping and parks.

RDOG approached the City and the developers of this new community.  RDOG was able to get two new dog parks written into the general plan.  One will be more of a neighbor hood dog park, and the other one will be within Fiddyment Park.
