Dog Park Etiquette

Dog Park Etiquette

•  Obey posted park rules.

•  Always keep your eye on your dog - mischief can happen quickly.

•  Never bring more dogs than you can watch- 3 is about the limit.

•  Never bring food or snacks into the park.

•  Never leave your dog unattended.

•  Always clean up after your dog. Poop bags are supplied, so use them. This is the primary reason dog parks get complaints, so pay attention and pick up poop.

•  Please help us educate other park users.

•  Remove any halters, metal choke chains or link collars. In the rough and tumble play, a tooth or nail could get caught in this type of collar, resulting in a scared dog, lost tooth or broken nail and possibly a panic fight.

•  Make sure that your dog is current on all shots, including  Bordetella for kennel cough.

•  Don't bring dogs younger that 4 months to the park. They won't have all of the necessary inoculations to allow them to play safely with other animals

•  Do not bring a female dog in heat.

•  Spayed/neutered animals are recommended.

•  If your dog becomes unruly or plays rough, leash him/her and leave the park.
