Use the dog park at your own risk. Owners are legally and financially responsible for any injury or damage caused by their dog. LPDP and LPBP are not responsible for injuries to humans or dogs.
Only owners who have completed the Lucas Park Dog Park application and signed the liability waiver will be allowed to bring registered dogs into the dog park. If there are two owners on the household’s registration, both owners must complete a liability waiver. Members may bring a human guest with them – but the member must agree to assume responsibility for the guest while inside the dog park. Members may not bring canine guests into the dog park, ever. If owners wish to allow a Pet Sitter to bring their registered dog to the park, the Pet Sitter must complete a liability waiver as well.
Dog owners must remain in the park with their dogs. Dogs shall not be left unattended.
Members agree to abide by the “No tag, No admittance, No exceptions” rule. All dogs must wear the Lucas Park Dog Park current season tag at all times.
Dog owners must pick up their dog’s poop and dispose of it in the trash can.
Dog owners must stop their dog from digging and must attempt to fill any holes caused by their dogs.
Dogs must wear a collar or harness in the park at all times. Choke, prong, pinch, spiked, or loose-fitting collars are not permitted.
Dog owners must have the dog’s leash in their possession at all times. If a situation arises in which a dog must be leashed and taken out of the fenced area, the owner is ready to take immediate action. Retractable “Flexie” leashes are not permitted.
All dogs must be under voice and visual control by owners.
Excessive barking is not permitted, and uncontrollable dogs must be removed. Having a bad day? Go home, come back later. Dog humping is not permitted. Off leash does not mean out of control.
No member may bring more than three dogs into the dog park at any one time. No more
than 25 dogs may be in the dog park at any given time unless at a LPDP/LPBP sanctioned
event.
All gates must be closed. Members must follow guidelines for storage box, pool, hose, and other resource use, as directed by emails and/or signage, per season, as needs arise.
Be respectful of other member’s wishes; if your dog is creating angst for a member dog or human, adjust the behavior or leave. Be mindful of the amount of time you stay in the park if others are waiting to enter; leave promptly once your dog is finished.
Threatening or harassing behavior by owners or their accompanying guests towards other
humans or dogs may result in immediate membership termination.
Do not take supplies or resources from the grounds, including, not limited to first aid, toys, tools, lawn equipment, etc.
Professional dog trainers may not use the facilities in the conduct of their business; However, LPDP may from time to time bring trainers to a sanctioned LPDP/LPBP event.
No children under age 8 are allowed inside the dog park. Children under 14 must be accompanied by an adult. Member dogs may, or may not, have experience being around children; being child-friendly is not a requirement for dog membership and experiences will vary.
