The city of Sea-Tac Washington, just south of Seattle and North of Tacoma, opened a 37 acre off leash park on Saturday. We went to the "Unleashing Ceremony". It was great. The park is called GrandView. Although the day was foggy, on a clear day Mt. Rainer would loom over the valley. Here are a few people that were there, er I mean dogs ;) About 200 people and their dogs were present for the "Unleashing"
Here you can see how foggy it was.

It was a wonderful day and we will have many more there. It is only about 10 miles from our house. We couldn't be happier !!!!

37 acres! I'll bet there is great fun to be had there. There are no dog parks in my county at all. Nearest one is about an hour away. Can't wait till our meeting in a week. Duke's going to have so much fun. Loved the pics.

Lucee is adorable. Man, if it weren't for the distance between us, I would take her in in a heartbeat.

You're also very lucky to have a dog park so near you! I have no idea where the nearest one to me is... Nowhere close, I think! Looks like a terrific place and no doubt the dogs will love it!

Since this is a new park it isn't all ready yet. The city closed it 3 years ago because they couldn't pay for it. The city then donated it to S.O.D.A., same group that runs Marymore, who opened it as an off leash park. There is no water any place yet. The pipes are there, just not in working order. That will be the next step. So for now we all have to carry jugs and bowls.
The park is on my way to work. So somedays if I am early I may stop on my way for a doggie fix:D
