- Dogs who exhibit humping or aggressive behavior should be removed immediately from the park to avoid the potential for injury to other dogs or owners. Chronic or habitual offenders and abusers will lose their Dog Park privileges.
- Some dogs like to mount—if yours is one of these, you must immediately separate to avoid any aggression problems from other dogs, or leave the park.
- Do not allow your dog to run to the gate when a new dog is entering; keep the gate area clear at all times so members can enter and exit without incident.
