What to bring

  • Water and a collapsible bowl โ€” most parks have spigots but they're seasonal
  • Waste bags โ€” three per hour is the rough rule
  • Collar with current rabies + ID tags (even if microchipped)
  • Treat pouch with high-value rewards for recall practice
  • Towel for muddy or wet paws on the way back
  • Vaccine record on your phone โ€” some parks spot-check

Quick etiquette reminders

  • โ†’ Watch your dog. Don't scroll your phone โ€” read body language, intervene early.
  • โ†’ No puppies under 4 months. Their immune systems aren't ready for group play.
  • โ†’ Females in heat stay home. Period.
  • โ†’ Leave high-value chew toys at home. They cause fights.
  • โ†’ If your dog is reactive on leash, dog parks aren't the right venue.
