lightbulbTips for Dog Parks with Water Features
Not all dogs are natural swimmers
Introduce your dog to water gradually. Let them wade in at their own pace rather than tossing them in. Consider a dog life jacket for deep water areas.
Rinse after water play
Pond or lake water can contain bacteria or algae. Rinse your dog off after swimming and watch for any signs of illness in the following days.
Pack towels and a car cover
Wet dogs and car interiors don't mix well. Bring extra towels and consider a waterproof seat cover for the drive home.
Watch for blue-green algae
During hot weather, some water features can develop toxic algae blooms. If the water looks green, foamy, or has an unusual smell, keep your dog out.

petsDog Park Etiquette
Always clean up after your dog
Bring bags and pick up immediately. This is the number one complaint at every dog park and the top reason parks get shut down.
Keep vaccinations current
Dog parks are shared spaces. Make sure your dog is up to date on rabies, distemper, and bordetella to protect everyone.
Leave aggressive dogs at home
If your dog has a history of aggression, a busy dog park isn't the right environment. Work with a trainer first.
Don't bring food for humans
Your lunch can trigger resource guarding in dogs around you. Save the picnic for after the park visit.
Supervise at all times
Stay off your phone and watch your dog. You need to be ready to intervene quickly if play gets too rough.
