Mission

FIDO is committed to ensuring that Prospect Park is a safe and healthy place for dogs and their people. FIDO believes that dogs need off-leash time to exercise and to play with other dogs in order to be healthy and well-socialized. We are, therefore, dedicated to protecting and enhancing off-leash opportunities in Prospect Park. FIDO understands that there are many diverse groups who use the Park. We keep lines of communication open with these groups and seek respectful coexistence. Toward this end, FIDO recognizes that dogs must be well-trained and under control at all times in order to be off-leash. Therefore we strive to educate the dog community regarding appropriate conduct. The dog community brings enormous benefits to Prospect Park. We are among the most consistent and dedicated of park constituencies. We use the park 365 days a year, rain or shine. We provide a network of watchful eyes in the early morning and late at night, bringing stability, security, and safety to the Park as a whole. As an organization FIDO seeks to harness our collective strength to increase the public's awareness of these benefits and to educate park and city officials and the general public about dogs, off-leash activity, and the need for a cleaner, better-maintained Prospect Park.
