Mt. Washington Community Dog Park Rules
It is very important that you and your dog follow the rules. These rules have been established to assure the safety of all dogs and dog owners who enter the dog parks.

1. Dogs and their owners must have completed the required documentation and provided up to date immunization records for their dog(s) to be allowed into the dog park. Visit www.mtwashingtonrec.com or call 502-251-4214 for information to complete this process. All dogs must have current Rabies, Distemper, Parvo, and Bordetella (Kennel Cough) vaccinations. A rabies tag must always be worn and displayed by all dogs and the dog handler is required to carry vaccination records. It is also recommended that dogs be on a flea and heartworm preventative medication. Mt. Washington Parks reserves the right to add additional required vaccinations in lieu of a threat to dogs, such as the canine flu.
2. Use the dog park at your own risk. The City of Mt. Washington or the Parks are NOT liable for any property, physical, or pet damage nor any injury occurring within the off-leash area. In addition, by using the dog park you are accepting responsibility for the actions of your dog(s) and yourself.
3. Owners may register up to four (4) dogs but may only handle two (2) inside the dog park at a time. Membership fees will be $37.10 a year for the first dog and $15.90 for each additional dog, up to four total dogs.
4. Dog Park is limited to 18 dogs at a time.
5. Owners are always legally responsible for the behavior of their dog(s).
6. Dogs must be leashed while entering and exiting the dog park.
7. Do not bring a dog into the dog park that you know to be ill with a viral infection or has any open wounds.
8. Dog Park is tobacco free.
9. Food (both human and dog or treats) and glass containers are not allowed inside the dog park. Please place all trash in the receptables prior to entering the dog park.
