What are the rules at Arkansas dog parks?
Dogs must be up-to-date on vaccinations, especially rabies and bordetella. Aggressive dogs should be removed immediately. Clean up after your dog. Supervise your dog at all times. Most parks require dogs to be leashed until inside the fenced area. Remove sick dogs immediately. Respect park hours and rules posted on-site.
Dog Park Etiquette & Safety
Before You Go:
- Ensure vaccinations are current (rabies, DHPP, bordetella)
- Don't bring dogs in heat, sick dogs, or puppies under 4 months
- Bring water, waste bags, and your dog's favorite toy
- Visit during off-peak hours for first-time visits
At the Park:
- Remove leash only after entering the double-gated entry
- Watch your dog constantly—don't sit on your phone
- Intervene early if play becomes too rough
- Leave if your dog shows aggression or excessive fear
- Pick up waste immediately—no exceptions
- Close all gates behind you to prevent escapes
Warning Signs to Leave:
- Your dog is hiding, cowering, or trying to escape
- Other dogs are ganging up on one dog
- Play has escalated to aggression (stiff bodies, snarling)
- Owners are not supervising their dogs
