Someone from Vancouverisawesome.com once said that the Eastern side of Vancouver is ruled by cats, while the West parts are ruled by dogs. While I can’t comment on the accuracy of such city bifurcation, I do know that we have a lot of dogs around.
So, do you think we should get more off-leash dog parks in Kits? Currently, we have Hadden Park as a designated off-leash area, but a group has started a petition requesting for more canine-friendly space. Specifically, the petition suggests Connaught Park or Arbutus Walk as off-leash area extensions, from 5-9 am and 5-9 pm daily.
If you’d like to learn more about the petition, head on over to http://kitsdogpark.webs.com for more info. And if this sounds like a good and reasonable cause to you– whether or not you are a dog owner– you can sign the online petition by clicking at the link at the bottom of their page.
