Rules for Dogs
*Aggressive behavior*
If we observe aggressive behavior, we reserve the right to:
· Reposition the dog within the park
· Placed in time-out
· Ask you and your dog to leave the premises
*Dog fights* If dog fights occur, each owner should grab their respective dog by the nape and pull them away from the other dog(s) involved and reposition them until they calm down. Please note, no method is perfect and the risks are still present.
*No bullies* Dogs inherently play “rough.” However, rough play is not accepted if the one or more of the dogs aren't comfortable with the situation. If a dog is deemed to “bully” another dog, the owner will be asked to place their dog in “time-out.” Mounting is also discouraged.
Dogs must be on leash when exiting the Dog Park.
