First Friday Yappy Hour at Marina Green

First Friday Yappy Hour at Marina Green

Sat, Mar 7, 12:30 AM
From San Francisco Yorkshire Terrier & Dog Friends Meetup Group
4.7

Calling all Dog Lovers in San Francisco! Let your furry friends make new connections, romp around, and have a tail-wagging good time at First Friday Yappy Hour at the western end of Marina Green (where Marina Blvd and Scott St intersect). This is a perfect opportunity to socialize and engage in some dog-friendly activities! Please note that Marina Green is an open and unfenced park (not a fully enclosed off-leash dog park like Francisco was) and that dogs are technically required to be on leash at all times. On the other hand, there is plenty of free parking! Don't miss out on this paws-itively delightful event and create lasting memories with your furry companions. Join us for a delightful time at the First Friday Yappy Hour!
