Beeville is one of the 30 finalists in the Bark For Your Park contest.

The contest, run by PetSafe, gives money to winning communities to either upgrade or create a new dog park from scratch.

Nine cities will divide up $125,000 in prizes.

Voting is going on now, and is open to anyone 18 years old or older living in the U.S. Voters are allowed to participate once a day.

Recent transplant Dara Carillo started the initiative, and told KRIS 6 News Sunrise's Corderro McMurry that she wants to help bring a dog park to Beeville because she wants her dog, GG, to be able to socialize with other dogs in their community.
