 Parkland Parklet Neighborhood Barbecue on Saturday, February 28, 2026, from 3:00–5:00 PM in the alley behind Muhammad Ali’s childhood home.
This gathering is all about bringing neighbors together for food, fellowship, and connection while highlighting positive community efforts in Parkland. It will also be a great opportunity to meet residents and see firsthand the partnerships forming to support the neighborhood.
Several community organizations will be present to serve and share resources, including Whitney/Strong, The Outsiders Cycling Group, Trees Louisville, Ridenfaden Cycling Group, and Good Folks Solutions. Their presence reflects the strong collaboration growing around safety, wellness, and neighborhood pride.

 Here is our adoptable pet of the week, Axel!
“"Eyes on the prize, paws on the pavement, and brains... somewhere in the bushes."
He’s clearly a "live fast, sniff hard" kind of guy who doesn't let things like kennel stress or fashionable cone pillows slow down his mission to see everything at once. Axel is 3yrs old, a totally lover boy with an adventurous side. We believe he is house trained too! Meet Axel at Animal House today!

 Our pet of the week is James P Sullivan,
"Hi, I’m James (FKA as Tank)!
And I have a confession: I am a toy hoarder.
Why hold one tennis ball when you can fit three? Why choose between the squeaky pig and the rope when you can just... take them all?
The volunteers say I have a "zest for life" despite living in a kennel!
My fav activity (besides hoarding toys..) is eating cheeseburgers (yes, that really happened, and it was the best day of my life 🍔).
I’m a 60lb lap dog. Seriously. If you sit down, I will be in your lap. Plus kisses.
I might try to walk you by holding the leash in my mouth. I’m helping!
I dream of a family who will supply me with endless cuddles and stuffies.
I came here after our family lost their home. We were loved, and I miss them, but I’m ready to bring my toy collection to your house." xoxoxo James P Sullivan (TANK).
