Please note, adherence to the run rules is a condition of membership.
- Members only.
- Entering and leaving instructions: Leash and unleash your dog in the entry area between the two gates. Make sure there is only one gate open at a time.
- No children under 12 allowed. Children between 12-16 years are only allowed if they measure 4 feet and are accompanied by an adult member.
- Your first priority is to watch your dog at all times. Fights are rare but if your dog and another fight, try to break it up by spraying them with the hose. If that doesn’t work, pull them apart by their hind legs to reduce the possibility of getting bitten. Email the board to inform us of the incident. Ask for the other dog owner’s name in case there’s a need for follow up.
- Health: If your dog exhibits any sign of ill health please don’t bring it into the dog run and take it to the vet. Please do not bring dogs in heat to the run.
- Sanitation: Keep an eye on your dog and clean up immediately after your dog has done its business, including spraying the area with water (hose or bottles).
- Poop bags are available in the poop bag container. Throw away used poop bags in the large trash bin.
- Please take out the trash when full and dispose of it in the nearest trash can. New trash bags are available in the small dispenser above the trash bin.
- When the leaves fall, please sweep them up, put them in garbage bags and take them to an outside trash can.
- 15 minute rule: If your dog and another have issues, the arriving party can ask the party in the run to wrap up their visit in 15 minutes before entering the dog run.
- Walkers must attend orientation and can bring no more than 3 dogs at a time.
- Do not bring any food into the dog run. Alcohol is not permitted.
- Do not pick up a dog (even a small dog), it’s provocative.
- Pools: Please dump the water out of the pool when dirty and at the end of the day. It usually takes two people to do this job. Please no shampooing in the pool.
- No outside toys. We provide yellow tennis balls for all to use.
- Please be respectful of our neighbors and keep the noise level down, especially between 9 p.m. and 9 a.m.
- No roller blading, skates, skateboards or bikes in the dog run.
- If you acquire a second dog, that dog must be registered.
- No slip or pinch collars.
- Smoking anything is not permitted in the dog run.
Lastly, enjoy the dog run and thank you for your membership!
