The CU South closure beginning the week of October 5, 2026 is going to have a big impact on the community as it’s a very popular spot for off-leash dog walking. We hope everyone will be able to find safe alternatives for their dogs to continue to enjoy their off-leash freedom. The Boulder Voice & Sight Tag Program is likely the best option for most. We’d love to help you get your dog Voice & Sight Tag ready ahead of the closure. Give us a call, text, or email to set up a call.
