In April 2006, the city gave formal approval to designate about 32,000 square feet at Ala Wai Park for an off-leash dog area. But shortly afterward, the city needed the site to store equipment for the Ala Wai sewer project. Two years later, the site is still housing equipment and the city has told the group pushing for a dog park that it will be 30 months to five years before the site will be free.

In the meantime, the Ala Wai K-9 Playground Association is asking for a temporary park.  The proposed site is behind the community gardens at Ala Wai Park and would be fenced off.  The association is offering to pay for fencing and other upgrades.

Last week, some of our dog and human friends attended the Project Safe at Moilili.  It was to raise driver / pedestrian awareness.  Here’s a link to the photo gallery, see if you can spot our friends!
