Meet the Mill Creek MetroParks’ MetroMutts, a group for dog walking

A group of dogs and their human companions took advantage of last week’s sunshine by heading out to Mill Creek MetroParks’ new East Park hike and bike trail. They’re called the MetroMutts, a membership for local nature lovers who bring their dogs along for walks through Mill Creek MetroParks.

HOW TO JOIN THE METROMUTTS If you have a dog who loves going for long walks and you’re looking to get out into nature more, consider joining the Mill Creek MetroParks’ MetroMutts. Members of MetroMutts get advance notice of programs, special hikes and events that are scheduled throughout the year, like last week’s “New Year, New Trail” hike. Traverse new parts of the park and make new friends in the area.

If you know other dog lovers, consider gifting them a MetroMutts memberships. Members also receive a “I love my MetroMutt” car window cling. Annual memberships start at $30 to register one dog and one walker, and if you have multiple dogs it’s $40. Fill out a membership application online; if you have questions, call (330) 740-7114. Dogs have to be on leashes, non-aggressive and under owner’s control at all times.
