About PIDO

Point Isabel Dog Owners and Friends (PIDO) is an organization which works with the park district to maintain this area as an off-leash dog area and to inform visitors of their responsibilities as users of this park to obey park rules.

PIDO membership is open to all who wish to support and protect Point Isabel as an open and natural place to walk and play with their dogs off-leash. The membership fee to belong to PIDO is $10. This money, plus funds from donations and shirt sales, help pay for the biodegradable bags provided jointly by PIDO and the park district, for a quarterly newsletter, and for brochures avaiable at the park.

Mudpuppy’s owners now keep the bag dispensers full of Mutt Mitts™. PIDO members sponsor monthly park cleanup days and you're invited to take part. As you have may have observed, Point Isabel is very heavily used—over one million visitors a year.

Donations to PIDO are always welcome, and are used to help cover the costs of the above items. PIDO is tax-exempt under the Internal Revenue Code 501 (c) [3]. Donors will receive a receipt for income tax purposes. A treasurer's report is available on request. Donations may be sent to the PIDO Treasurer, P.O. Box 8282, Berkeley, CA, 94707.
