It's time to revisit and re-emphasize basic dog-on-leash etiquette - these are not suggestions, they are rules that protect riders, their dogs, hikers, and the neighborhoods that we access our trails through. If you are off the trails or in an on-leash area like Whatcom Falls or parts of Lake Padden, then your dog is leashed.
There was a recent incident in the Birch neighborhood with an unleashed dog that has sparked this conversation. Please be considerate of the people who live in the neighborhoods around Galbraith, Sudden Valley and the Chuckanuts. Whether your dog is running through a neighbor's flower bed or taking a poop in someone's yard, chasing their cat, or just getting in the way of vehicles, they NEED to be on-leash as you ride to and from off-leash trails. Not everyone likes dogs and certainly doesn't love your dog. If you can't be bothered to ride with a leash and respect our neighbors, then leave your dog at home. End of story.
We know the vast majority of dog owners are respectful and enjoy getting out with their trail dogs. Please do your part and leash your dog whenever you are off the trails or in riding with them in on-leash trail areas. Thank you!

Thank you for posting this — it really needed to be said. As a rider and a dog owner myself, I love hitting the trails with my pup, but there’s a time and place for off-leash adventures. It’s not just about our dogs having fun — it’s about safety and respect for everyone around us. That incident in Birch is exactly why these rules exist. Let’s all do our part to keep our communities safe and trail access open by following leash rules. It’s not hard — just clip the leash on when you're supposed to. sprunki phase 5
Following leash rules is crucial for the safety of both your dog and others around you. A tweed dog collar not only ensures your dog’s comfort but also adds a bit of style to their look while out for walks. It’s a great combination of durability and fashion, perfect for everyday outings!
