With receivers like these you wonder why they are not above us in the food chain

A leash for dogs gives comfort and safety for your pet and the persons out walking or going about their business.
Merritt BC has an off leash park for dogs to run and frolic. The park is located behind the city recycle, near the open space of Voght park. There are paved walking trails that can be picked up and at a number of locations in town they go by the park and along the Nicola river. The river is expressly beautiful at this time of year with sand bars and some deep clean pools.
Bags are available at the transition points of the walking trails for picking up after your pet, and there is parking at the off lease park for some cars.
There is also a bike park available off the walking trail as it comes out of central park by the RCMP station.

Trail maps are available for free at the downtown tourist info center at 2202 Voght street across from city hall.
