Protecting Off-Leash Activity in our CityUnder bipartisan support, Rep. Speier passes an amendment to protect off-leash fun for our pups in certain parks and beaches, supporting "a 40 year tradition" to allow our furry family members to run free and play. While the bill still needs to be approved by the Senate, it is a very positive step for those who wish to continue our traditions of providing places for our pups to play.
Dog-Gala CelebrationAfter multiple years and much neighborhood support, the north-west triangle of Balboa Park, along the upper block of Havelock Street, was approved as an off-leash dog play area. (SF Recreation & Park Commissioners Mtg, July 20, 2017). On Friday, September, 2017, despite record-breaking temperatures, a number of the dog-guardians and their furry family members, gathers to celebrate this success.
Information on fences/signage/doggie-bag station, etc will be coming soon.
