Enjoy Nature with Your Furry Friend
Our parks are a great place to bring the whole family – even your dogs! While at our parks, please remember they are natural areas.
Please observe our dog rules and etiquette. Dogs must be on a leash of six feet or less at all times. This is for their safety, and it also shows consideration for other park visitors who may be afraid of wandering dogs. Our parks are also home to species-at-risk. These species can be in danger when dogs are loose. Oh – and don’t forget to come prepared to pick up after Fido.
