We have exciting news and even more events coming up in support of the Downtown Dog Park!

Fromm Family Pet Food announced as title sponsor of Downtown Dog Park

Mequon-based Foxtown Brewing, an affiliate of Fromm Nieman Brands, announced their concept plan to build a 28,000-square-foot development on a vacant site adjacent to the proposed downtown dog park. Known as Foxtown Landing, the development will include a multi-story building which will house a taproom, distillery, and restaurant with expansive pet-friendly outdoor spaces overlooking the river, as well as a rooftop patio and balcony.



This announcement marks a major milestone for the downtown dog park as project leaders also announced Fromm Family Pet Food as the title sponsor of the future off-leash dog park, which will be adjacent to the Foxtown Landing development. While the capital campaign continues, the announcement

is a major momentum builder.
