DOG PARK ETIQUETTE

As a pet sitter I hope everyone reads and applies the simple Do’s and Don’ts of dog park rules and etiquette to their trips to the dog park for heaven sakes.

          Dogs are allowed in many city and county parks as long as they are on a leash that is 6 feet or less.  If you are looking for a place to swap tales, sniff butts, and run free, a Dog Park may be the spot for you.

         Before taking your human out for off-leash recreation, make sure you know the park rules.  You can usually find them posted on a sign when you enter the park.  Be on your best behavior or you and your human will be taking the walk of shame.
