Frequently Asked Questions

What are the rules for off-leash dog parks?

Most off-leash parks require dogs to be under voice control, up-to-date on vaccinations, and supervised at all times. Aggressive dogs must be leashed or removed. Owners are responsible for cleaning up after their dogs.

How do I know if my dog is ready for off-leash play?

Your dog should respond reliably to basic commands like "come" and "leave it," be well-socialized with other dogs and people, and not show aggression or excessive fear. Start with quieter times to test their behavior.

Are off-leash dog parks safe for small dogs?

Many off-leash parks have separate areas for small and large dogs. If no separate area exists, visit during off-peak hours and keep your small dog close. Always supervise interactions with larger dogs.
