The Kirkland Dog Off-Leash Group is offering a free seminar, “Having Fun & Staying Safe at Kirkland’s Dog Park.”

This seminar will help you enjoy the new Kirkland Dog Park when it opens later this year.

Topics covered include: safety features of the new park; is the dog park right for your dog; what good play skills look like; dog park etiquette; and identifying red flags in order to avoid inappropriate situations.

Sign up for the Oct. 5 or Oct. 25 seminar, which both run from 7:30-8:30 p.m. at the North Kirkland Community Center, 12421 103rd Ave. N.E., Kirkland, Room 1.

The presentation is sponsored by KDOG, and is being given by Sandy Dain, owner of Metamorphosis Pet Training. Please leave your dog at home as this seminar is for humans only. For questions or to RSVP, email kdog@kdog.org.
