Kirkland Off Leash Dog Area Meetup Group 5.00 5.007
Founded
June 12, 2007

Do you live in Kirkland and wish there was a dog park locally rather than having to go to Luther Burbank or Marymoor. We are looking for responsible dog owners who want to work with the City of Kirkland to establish a dog park (or dog parks). Join up and help us strategize on how to get this done. Please sign the online petition: http://www.PetitionOnline.com/guth716/petition.html
*Taxpaying dog owners and non-dog owners appreciate a local dog park where dogs can lawfully be off leash.
*Other cities including Seattle, have shown that volunteers can effectively help run a local dog park with the city as their partner (see coladog.org for Seattle).
*Dog owners want to act within the law but also want to exercise and socialize with their dogs off leash.
It will take some persistence but we can get it done!

Want to attend?

WE will be meeting to hear your suggestions to bring forward to the City. We have been awaiting the outcome of the elections tonight. We want to get some commitment from the city in 2010 towards restarting the off leash areas discussion.

What's going on elsewhere in the area with off leash parks? Here are some news from other locations. Read more

What members are saying

 I think more people should get involved and help make this dog park a reality!

 I appreciate Jean taking the time and effort to organize this group in support of local dog owners.
