2012 Beneful® Dream Dog Park Contest Winner Announced!

FIDO is SO EXCITED to share this news - Beneful® has announced that Lancaster, Pa. resident Angela Bauman and her four-legged best buddy, Beau, have been named the Grand Prize Winner of the 2012 Beneful® Dream Dog Park Contest!

Angela’s creative entry for an amusement park-themed dog park will help serve as inspiration for a half-million dollar renovation of a dog park in the Lancaster area. In addition, Angela will receive $10,000 cash and a one year supply of Beneful® brand dog food.

Angela shares her winning entry here:

 There is nothing better than an amusement park to keep a humans entertained and stimulated for hours on end. I feel like the goal of a dog park is for our dogs to interact with other dogs, and to keep them stimulated for an extended period of time. How about a canine amusement park?

I would envision a large area of land that could be sectioned off by activity. Here are the sections i would create:

-The Roller Coasters: In other words, a section that would encourage them to run fast, over hills, and under bridges. Lots of toys, and interactive elements and games for the dogs to enjoy


-The Water Park: A pool/water area that would allow your dog to not only splash and play, but an area deep enough to allow them to swim and fetch items


-The Arena: An area indoors, for those rainy days. The indoor arena would allow dogs to do agility training if they want, or just run free with others!
As for the humans - Sometime when you get to a dog park there are benches where people can sit and watch their dog play. With the different areas, it would allow for humans to interact more with their dogs within the park - and allow them to watch their dogs interactivity to decide when its time to jump to a different area of the park to continue the stimulation!
