The City of Calgary is currently recruiting volunteers to participate in the Off-Leash Ambassador program.
The Off-Leash Ambassador program is an innovative approach with a volunteer-based, citizen-led initiative to promote responsible pet ownership in Calgary’s 150 off-leash parks.
Volunteers in the program will:
- Promote responsible pet ownership, positive pet interactions and safety in off-leash areas through the provision of information and demonstrations
- Answer questions regarding Calgary’s bylaws in off-leash areas
- Act as positive role models in off-leash parks in terms of adhering with Calgary’s bylaws
- Provide an avenue for citizens to express concerns and pass along concerns to City staff
- Promote the work of Calgary Community Standards and the services available at the Animal Services Centre, such as animal adoption and licensing.
Ambassadors will receive training to familiarize themselves with bylaws, canine body language, as well as tactics to communicate with the public.
