During the 13 Sunday D-backs home games in the 2016 season, dog owners will be allowed to bring their pet to a comfortable environment made specifically for dogs.

Here’s how it works, via a team news release:
“We are excited to create a unique dog-friendly area of our ballpark and can think of no better way than to partner with Phoenix-based PetSmart,” said D-backs president and chief executive officer Derrick Hall in a statement. “Bark at the Park has always been a popular event at Chase Field, and now we are thrilled to offer fans the opportunity to bring their dogs to our games every Sunday to a new destination designed specifically for them. For many households a pet is an extension of their families and the D-backs are excited to partner with PetSmart to provide a family-friendly atmosphere for all family members, including our canine friends.”
In addition to creating a space for current dog owners, there will also be an adoption spot during these games for families to take a puppy home with them.
