Dog Park
Rules:
-
Dogs must be
properly inoculated. Proof of rabies shot is required at all
times. Dogs must be healthy (have no contagious diseases),
and be parasite free. If tags are not on the collar,
documentation must be in the owner’s possession and readily
available at the park.
-
Owners must
clean up after their dogs.
-
Owners may
take no more than three dogs per visit.
-
No children
under the age of 6 permitted. Children under 12 years of age
are strongly discouraged. Children should at no time be
allowed to run with or chase after dogs in the park.
-
Dogs must be
kept on leashes until they are released inside the fenced
area.
-
Dogs may not
enter the park area if they are in heat.
-
Owners are
asked to closely supervise their dogs. At no time should the
owner leave the park without their dog(s).
-
Do not bring
rawhide or food, snacks or treats into the park as dogfights
may result.
-
Please
remove sharp or spike collars from your dog prior to
entering the park. A basic flat buckle collar (with city
license, rabies, and identification tags) is recommended. If
the collar is removed, the owner must keep in their
possession so proof of shots is readily available.
-
Please use

smaller than those in the large area, or if you have a
senior dog that may not be able to handle romping from the
younger dogs. Owners should keep their dogs in their
designated areas according to their

aggression at the park, it will not be permitted to return.

Water supply
and concessions will not be available from November 1 –
