Did You Know?

Unscooped dog poop washes off into waterways and provides nutrients (pollutants) that may cause algae blooms and fish kills. Stormwater runoff may become your drinking water.

Note to Patrons:

We ask that you not not go barefoot in the dog park.

Also, please be aware of diseases that can be transmitted from dog-to-dog in a dog park and have your dog vaccinated BEFORE coming to the park to play. Example: Kennel Cough, Ringworm, Etc.
