Off-Leash Dog Area Etiquette:

Dogparks aren’t a right, they’re a privilege - please don’t let bad behavior ruin things for everyone else. Once you and your dog get to the dogpark, it’s tempting to just stand back and watch all the activity. But everybody will have a much more rewarding time if you observe some basic rules.

• Always keep your eye on your dog. Mischief can happen quickly.
• Never leave your dog unattended.
• Always clean up after your dog. Poopbags and scoopers will be provided, so use them. 
• Make sure your dog is current on his/her shots and has a valid license.
• Don’t bring dogs younger than 4 months to a dogpark. They won’t have had all the necessary vaccinations that allow them to play safely with other animals.
• Don’t bring a female dog in season. Spayed/neutered animals are recommended.
• Don’t bring more than three dogs. It subjects parks to overuse, and if they’re not your dogs, you may not have full control over them.
• Keep your dog on-leash until you get to the off-leash area. This is not just respectful to other park users, it’s much safer for your dog.
• If your dog becomes unruly or plays rough, leash him and leave immediately.
• If you must bring children to a dogpark, supervise them closely.
• Don’t smoke or eat while at the dogpark. Cigarette butts and food wrappers are tempting treats to dogs, but bad for them.
• Always observe all of the rules posted at your dogpark. Rules and regulations will be posted, so please follow them.
