The grass-in-shade argument is also a bit weak imho. The grass doesn't have to be perfect, and as stated, a mulched area is a possibility.
And as also stated, trees aren't the only possible source of shade.
Finally, nobody is being demanding. We're just discussing possible ways to improve an already nice facility. I could see very limited use of the dog park in months like experienced this summer if there is no shade whatsoever .

I'll help.
We built a
Robert Leathers Playground when my kids were little. We raised the money, borrowed tools from the community and contractors and did the construction in 4 days. On the second day we had 200 volunteers.
I was in charge of tools. Honestly it was one of the most fun experiences I ever had.
This would be a much smaller project than a playground and I'll bet there would be a lot of support.
