CANINE RECREATION DOG PARKS
Entry is only permitted for dogs with a current dog park tag. Please do your part and practice social distancing in the dog parks by remaining at least 6 feet away from others. A face covering will be required if social distancing is not possible. Dog park members are also expected to abide by the current mass gathering limitation. Owners are required to clean up after their dogs, both inside and outside the fenced area. Children under 12 years of age must be supervised by an adult and spectators (those without a dog) need to remain outside the fenced areas. All members must follow these rules in addition to all other dog park rules and regulations. Please visit our Canine Recreation page at dprcarninerecreation.org for a complete list of dog park rules.
DOG PARK REGISTRATION All dogs MUST be registered with DPR annually. To ensure that we provide a healthy environment for all participants, we have adopted the vaccination requirements recommended by the American Animal Hospital Association. All dogs are required to have the following vaccinations before being issued a Dog Park tag: rabies, distemper/ parvo, bordetella, and a negative fecal exam. We also accept titer results in lieu of vaccinations except for rabies (state law). Vaccinations must be current, and not due to expire within 30 days. When these requirements are met, a DPR dog park tag is assigned. All dogs must wear their current dog park tag while playing in the park. Online registration is available at dprplaymore.org using course #11521. After registering, vaccination records and liability waiver must be emailed to durhamdogpark@durhamnc.gov. See website for complete instructions, or call 919-560-4355.
