Facebook for Dogs - Proof of the Movement
All canine insurgency and dog park community groups should examine the organization power of Facebook DogBook.
As you know the insurgency had a partial victory last fall over the urgent need of a fenced yard at Allen Gardens (downtown Toronto, Canada). A fenced yard was created late fall, and has been used heavily by the local pack even in its unfinished shape. I say partial victory because it remains to be seen the health impacts of the 60% granite sand design, and the repercussions in terms of leash enforcement in the rest of the park which would likely be counter to the insurgency's dog park policy position.
And why was it needed? Dogbook stats currently puts the number of dogs withing a 2.5 k distance of the park at over 2700.

Call for Contributers
It has been a great shame that we have been side tracked and haven't been able to keep up this blog. We see that it still gets a lot of traffic, and want to invite any dog lovers out there to contribute. You can write articles about your park, make videos of your neighbourhood dogs, offer opinions and solutions to common dog related issues and political matters. The tone of all contributions should be playfully radical.
If you are interested in contributing, please email:
canineinsurgency@gmail.com
Hopefully we will have more time come spring to make more videos, but if you want to contribute videos to Canine Insurgency, we can show you how to earn a little money from it.
Thanks to all Insurgency supporters.
