MUTT MITT DISPENSERS AND VOLUNTEERS PARTNERING WITH CITY

Effective June 12, 2015, and just in time for Fiesta, six community volunteers from the Facebook page, “Dog Friendly Gloucester”, are pleased to announce that existing Mutt Mitt dispensers for dog waste disposal are now fully supplied in the following locations around the city:

· Stage Fort Park (4 dispensers)

· Stacey Boulevard (4 dispensers)

· Wheeler’s Point including Brown’s Field and Corliss Park

· Goose Cove Reservoir/Gee Avenue entrance.

· Rocky Neck Park (1 dispenser)

The City will purchase the bags and our volunteers will make sure the dispensers are stocked in time for summer vacation and stay stocked throughout the year. In the first week, volunteers reported that 100 Mutt Mitts were dispensed at Goose Cove Reservoir and 100 on Stacey Boulevard/container closest to Tavern.

“Mutt Mitts provides Gloucester with a smart solution to keep our parks safe and to avoid unnecessary health risks. This program is a great way to help dog owners avoid pet waste pollution and comply with City ordinances,” said Mayor Sefatia Romeo Theken.

This initiative to get the dispensers back in operation is a collaborative effort between volunteers from Dog Friendly Gloucester, the Department of Public Works, City Administration, and the Environmental Health Services Department. Since the winter, Dog Friendly Gloucester, together with Dog Park leaders, Cape Ann Animal Aid, Rotary, and the City of Gloucester, has organized several clean ups of dog waste and trash on Good Harbor Beach, Goose Cove Reservoir, our Dog Park, Wingaersheek Beach, and Stacey Boulevard.

If you have a dog and you are able to continue bringing your own dog waste bags and one for a friend, please continue to do this. In addition, if you see an owner who is not complying with our City’s pick up ordinance, please remind them of these newly stocked Mutt Mitt dispensers.

If you have any questions or if you want to volunteer to fill empty Mutt Mitt dispensers in your neighborhood, send a message to Dog Friendly Gloucester on Facebook. Our grassroots community initiative is always looking for additional volunteers! The concerns of Dog Friendly Gloucester go well beyond discussions of leash laws and city ordinances. It is a group that is committed to making sure we all act responsibly and empathetically towards our four-legged friends, the environment, and our fellow citizens.
