Dogs at the crag?

Post by JessicaLemur » Mon Sep 03, 2007 10:37 am

Does anyone know the policy on dogs in Squamish? We may have a large but mellow furry companion with us and don't want any fines... Thanks!

I haven't heard of any laws forbidding dogs at the crags. If it's a fairly quiet dog I can't see how anyone would mind so long as they're not stepping in dog crap.

I got my pup 2 months ago and he has been making frequent trips to the Grand Wall Boulders and also recently to Chek. I keep him on a leash at Chek, cause there is so many people there, and I can't just got grab him if he is being an a$% while I am leading or belaying. At the Grand Wall boulders, I let him off the leash, but i always have crap bags with me, and I don't let him out of my sight. So far no problems.

Dogs in Squamish

There is usually a bunch of dogs running around the boulders, crags, and every other part of Squamish. Most owners are respectful enough to pack out the crap (or the dogs are smart enough to hide it well).

They seem to be compulsory - at least for residents. I have never been anywhere else on earth with a higher canine : human ratio ...
