C.H.E.W. was organized in 2006 to
advocate for the establishment of a 40 acre fenced off-leash dog park in the Gig Harbor area. Click
here to see
what CHEW proposes.
As taxpayers we feel an off-leash dog park is a legitimate recreational activity that should be available in our community
(
see "Park Benefits").
We have a petition signed by 1400 people representing community support for our efforts.
C.H.E.W. also promotes responsible dog ownership by facilitating and promoting speaker presentations that include canine health and behavioral topics
(
see "Events").
Our current focus is on a 44 acre parcel of land on the Tacoma Narrows Airport property. It is part of an area that is designated for
passive recreational use by the Peninsula Metropolitan Parks Department.
We need your help as we work with PenMet Commissioners to develop a plan that will bring
about what we believe to be an important
community asset--a large regional off-leash dog park. Please contact us.
