Welcome to the Gold Canyon D.O.G. -Dog Owners Group- website, your source for information on dog related events and information in the Gold Canyon community, and for updates on our progress toward making the future off-leash dog park KRAMER'S RUN a reality. Gold Canyon D.O.G. was created on August 16, 2003 by a small group of dog owners sharing the vision of an off-leash park in the area. The purpose of this group is to Promote Responsible Dog Ownership. Our goal is to have an off-leash dog park in our area. The organization will not own the dog park, but will provide its members with opportunities for educational activities and events for owners and their dogs so they can interact. A well-run dog park is greatly dependent on the continuing presence of such groups.
