Purchasing Park Permits
Two Discounts Available Again
Permits/tags (or daily passes) are required for all dogs using the Cedar Rapids off-leash dog parks. 2013 permits go on sale December 1, 2012. Only one permit is necessary for the two parks. (K9 Acres, the new park, is expected to open in the spring or early summer.)
The base fee for a permit is $27. Though paying full price means permit fees have increased a bit, in fact everyone has the opportunity for two $5 discounts, which means you could end up paying even less for your permit in 2013! ($25 permit fee - $5 discount in 2012 = $20. $27 permit fee - $10 discount [$5 x 2] = only $17!)
You qualify for a $5.00 discount if your dog is spayed or neutered, OR if you are purchasing permits for more than one dog (you may choose only one of these discounts, and the multiple dog discount is not available for your first dog). In addition, you qualify for a second $5.00 discount if your dog has passed a recall test offered by K9COLA (this is a one-time test and passing means $5.00 off the cost of your permit each year for the life of your dog. See article just below or email info@k9cola.org for information on test dates).
You will need proof of vaccinations (rabies, parvo, distemper) from your vet to purchase a permit. If your dog has passed the K9COLA recall test in the past, you will need to show the test certificate to get that discount. Daily permits will be available for $6 at the dog parks if you just want to try them out, or if you are visiting the area.
