Louisburg is one of the 25 finalists for the Petsafe Unleashed Contest that offers a $50,000 grant to the winning community to build a dog park. You can help Louisburg win the grant by voting online through the Petsafe Unleashed Contest website at petsafeunleashed.petsafe.com. The community that receives the most votes between now, November 14, and November 30th will be awarded the $50.000 grant. You can vote once daily.

Louisburg entered the Petsafe Unleashed Contest as part of a community project led by a group of residents who formed “Friends of Louisburg Dog Park”. The group has a goal of establishing an off-leash dog park for Louisburg and surrounding areas. The City Council approved a 2 acre City owned lot to be used as the future site, east of the Aquatic Center. The design of the park is still in the planning process.
