Lend-A-Leash Program

The Lend-A-Leash Program is made possible by the team work of the City of Homer, Homer Animal Friends and Alaska Mindful Paws of the Homer Animal Shelter to provide pet leashes to the community.  Look for the signs at the beach, parks and trails for the leashes.

The program was created to help improve safety for people, children and dogs on the beaches or parks by making leashes readily available to borrow if you do not have one to use. When you visit the beaches and parks we want you to enjoy safely without being concerned about a possible rogue pet or other hazard you may encounter.

Thank you for keeping your dog on a leash.
