DOG PARK ETIQUETTE
1.
Owners are responsible for the best interest of
their dogs, and their dog’s playmates.
2.
Following veterinarian’s recommendation, dogs
should be spayed or neutered.
3.
If you notice that a dog’s owner has missed picking
up after a dog, hand them a bag and politely point out their dog’s droppings.
If you come across a stray dropping, go ahead and pick it up yourself.
4.
For the protection of all dogs and humans using the
dog park, dogs should wear flat collars with no spikes or prongs protruding
outwards. Choke collars should not be
worn. Please remove these types of
collars before entering the park.
5.
During early morning and late evening hours, please
be considerate of neighbors and keep noise levels low.
6.
Dogs should not be allowed to dig. Dog owners are asked to replace grass or dirt
dug-up by their dog.
7.
Please help provide a safe place for older and
smaller dogs by respecting the one hour each day designated for their use
(3:00-4:00 pm). During that hour, please
confine your younger or larger dog to the track around the sports field.
8.
Many different bacteria and parasites naturally
found at dog parks can make both dogs and humans ill. Please remove any items you bring to the park
(balls, toys, bowls, etc).
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
1.
Do not bring human food to the dog park. Any well-behaved dog could jump or lunge for
food.
2.
For the general pet population dogs should be spayed
or neutered. Not only does spaying and neutering
reduce the numbers of unwanted pets, it also is generally good for the health
and well being of your pet (reduced aggression and incidents of infections,
cancers, tumors, hernias and other health problems).
3.
If you choose to bring your child to the park,
please make certain your child is supervised.
Teach your child proper dog park behavior: children should not bring toys, run around,
scream, pick up and wave sticks or approach animals they do not know.
