Savon Murre Veterinary Hospital is supporting the construction of the dog park with EUR 10 000.

“Savon Murre Animal Hospital wants to be involved in building an animal-friendly Kuopio. The dog park is a tangible and joyful way to support the well-being of pets and increase the sense of community in the area. For us as an animal hospital, it is important that dogs can move, play and meet each other – this is part of their overall well-being. That’s why we are happy to contribute to the costs of the park and are proud that it is named after Savon Murre.”
