Dogs must be removed at the first sign of aggression. • Female dogs in heat are prohibited from entering the park. • Dogs over six months must be spayed or neutered. • Dog owners must be in the park and within view of their dogs at all times. • All off-leash dogs must be under voice control of their owners. • Dog owners must keep their leash in hand at all times. • Please do not bring dog food into the park. • Owner must clean up dog feces.
