On the heels of last week’s brief closure and then reopening of the MSPCA-Angell dog park on South Huntington Avenue, the park is closed once again — but this time for a different reason.
On its Twitter account Wednesday afternoon, the MSPCA tweeted the following series of messages to explain the park’s closure, which is expected to last two to three weeks:
Note: The #MSPCA dog park is temporarily closed to allow space for a family of rabbits currently nesting inside 1/4 #JamaicaPlain

We anticipate re-opening the park in two to three weeks after the babies have been weaned and are able to move on 2/4 #JamaicaPlain

We ask for patience as we prioritize the safety of #wildlife who share this space with the community 3/4 #JamaicaPlain

We can all live skillfully (and enjoyably!) alongside #WildLife such as these rabbits. Here’s how: https://t.co/cwD0UR05Cw #JamaicaPlain 4/4

Last week, the MSPCA temporarily closed the dog park for several days while it investigated a fight that had occurred at the park between two dogs. The park reopened Aug. 23, with a new rule in place that no longer permits professional dog walkers to bring pups to the park.
