Petition Petition for OFF LEASH Dog Area in Guelph Park

Home > Categories > Environment and Wildlife > Petition for OFF LEASH Dog Area in Guelph Park

The Petition

There are 15,000 dogs registered in the city of Vancouver.
Many dogs are registered in the Mount Pleasant area.
Charleson Park is the nearest OFF LEASH Area 2.6 KM away from Guelph Park.
Trout Lake is the 2nd nearest OFF LEASH Area 3 KM away from Guelph Park.
Neither of these parks are located in Mount Pleasant.
Currently there are no OFF LEASH areas in Mount Pleasant.
As dog owners, we get fined for having a dog OFF LEASH in the park, although the dog or the owner has done nothing to harm or cause a disturbance to the park, the other park users, or other dog owners.

OUR STATEMENT:

To provide a common area, where dogs can play and learn to socialize with others dogs and people.
To develop a beautiful, well-maintained space open to all dog lovers and friends who are willing to uphold the park's rules and restrictions.
To view this park as a community project, in partnership with the Mount Pleasant Community, designed to satisfy the needs of dog-owners and non-dog owners alike.

OUR REQUEST:

We, the petitioners, request a DESIGNATED OFF LEASH AREA as mapped out below.
Just like Charleson Park we request off-leash times to be 6am to 10pm year-round.
Please sign the Petition below. Thanks for your support.
