RULES FOR DOG PARKS
- Always keep your eye on your dog. Mischief can happen
quickly.
- Never leave your dog unattended.
- Always clean up after your dog. Most parks have poopbags
or scoopers, so use them. This is a primary reason that dogparks get complaints, so pay
attention and pick up the poop.
- Make sure your dog is current on 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 inoculations 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 local
dogpark. Each town has its own set of regulations, so please follow them.
