Description
Do you love visiting Saratoga NHP with your pet?
Saratoga National Historical Park invites you and your pup for the launch of the park’s B.A.R.K. Ranger Program on Saturday, May 9 from 10 am to 2 pm at the Schuyler Estate in Schuylerville, NY. This site has restrooms, access to water, and nearby trails that are pet friendly. Learn what it means to be a B.A.R.K Ranger, explore the history of dogs at the Schuyler Estate, visit with park rangers, and get your pup officially certified! 100% certified good pups will earn a certificate and a special launch event bandana.
The event will also feature Lucky Puppy Rescue, Out of the Pits, and Saratoga County Animal Shelter sharing their work to help animals in our community and information about their adoptable animals! We will also be joined by the Friends of Fort Hardy Park and the Friends of Saratoga Battlefield discussing dog-friendly recreation in the area.
Join us for a B.A.R.K. Ranger fashion show at 1 pm! Show off your pet's style to participate. Bonus points for American Revolution themed outfits! Remember, the best accessories your pup can wear when visiting Saratoga NHP is a 6-foot leash with a poop bag dispenser attached.
If you can’t make it to the event, you can stop by our park visitor center during operating hours to fulfill the program requirements and earn a certificate and tag with your pup. Pets are not allowed in our park visitor center so bring a friend to watch your pup outside while you pop in to get your pet certified. Do not leave pets unattended in vehicles.
