A small group of concerned Bowen citizens are getting ready to approach Metro Parks Board with a request that there be a fenced 'off-leash' area for dog owners to use within the Crippen Park boundary. Our goal is to have the smaller 'sheep meadow', north west of the main meadow with the BIHORA horse paddock, enclosed as a safe, easily accessed area for dogs to run. With the support of our community this should be do-able! We hope to gather 350 signatures in support of this effort.

I am honestly a bit overwhelmed by the way the community has rallied behind this idea. This momentum belongs entirely to the people who took the time to show they care about our dogs and our parks. It is proof that we can shape the future of our green spaces when we work together.

There is an immense need for off leash areas on Bowen. Apart from giving their dog the freedom to exercise, it also provides dog owners with a safe space in which to train their dogs. The need for safely contained off leash areas should be a number 1 priority. THANK YOU.

We need this so bad. Walking on leash is fine but they really need to burn off that extra energy somewhere safe. thanks for organizing this!

My dog would love a spot to run off leash. Crippen is a great place but we need a safe fenced area.

About time. It is so hard to find anywhere on the island where my dog can actually play without me worrying about him running off near the road.
