Feeding our neighbors

Our hearts go out to the people and animals affected by the Taylor Bridge Fire burning near Cle Elum. We are gathering dog and cat food for the animals that have been uprooted from their homes and are staying in vet clinics and other shelters in Ellensburg and surrounding areas while the owners try to get settled.

If you would like to help, just drop off a 10 lb. or 20 lb. bag of dog or cat food at K9 Country Club before the end of the day Friday, August 17th, and we'll make sure the food goes where it's needed. (The smaller sizes are easier to transport than 40 lb. bags.)

Thank you!

About bringing dogs...
If your dog is not a regular daycare participant, please check with us before bringing him/her

About parking...
We won't have a parking attendant this year, so please keep these points in mind when parking:

  • Seniors or physically impaired, park in our parking lot

  • People with dogs have first choice to park outside our vinyl fence or along the entire driveway, but DO NOT block our neighbors in!

  • Anyone coming WITHOUT a dog, please park in the Evans parking lot next door

We have rented plastic folding chairs. If you want something more comfortable, bring your own chair.


We have a winner!

Many thanks to everyone who voted for the best dog park logo. The winner is Wagmore Park.

The logo will be featured on our annual T-shirt, along with this line:
