our history Y
The Marymoor Professional Dog Walker's Association (MPDWA)
is comprised of an assortment of independent pet care
services that acknowledge the importance of the off-leash
dog parks to the physical and social well-being for dogs.
Back
in the early days S.O.D.A. members expressed concern over the
potential impact the professional dog walking services could
have on the Marymoor Off-Leash Area. At S.O.D.A.’s request, the
dog walkers organized an association and in February 2000,
the Marymoor Professional Dog Walkers Association (MPDWA)
was formed. This association focuses on a positive program
of "caring concern" and promotes a "give back" attitude for
the privilege of using Marymoor Dog Park and it has allowed
us to have a working relationship with S.O.D.A. and the King
County Parks Department.
One of
the ways we have accomplished this is through donations and
volunteer hours. Since our association's inception in
2000 through the end of 2007, the Marymoor Professional Dog
Walkers Association has contributed $28,574 in donations and
3,524 in volunteer hours. |
