Wadsworth Community Dog Park
{Rules,"See the dog park rules below:
• Use the park at your own risk. Owners must be responsible and are legally liable for the actions of themselves and their dogs.
• Under Wadsworth R.C. § 951.10 (B)(3)(a&b), leashes are required at all times when outside the park. You may un-leash your dog once inside the fence, but you must leash your dog prior to leaving.
• Dogs must be licensed, healthy, current on vaccinations, and spayed or neutered.
• No smoking, glass containers, alcohol, or human food are allowed in the dog park!
• The park has been cordoned off based on animal size (over 30 pounds / less than 30 pounds). Please do not allow smaller dogs into the larger section and vice-versa. This is for your pet’s safety.
• Clean up after your dog defecates. There are ample bags and waste stations to allow you to remove all feces. This minimizes damage to the soil and helps prevent intestinal parasites. Additionally, please utilize the appropriate \"dog waste\" containers for your pet’s bagged fecal matter. Trash receptacles should only be used for other waste.
• Even if you’re socializing, remain vigilant at all times. Don’t take your eyes off your dog, and don’t let your dog wander off; accompany him/her at all times.
• Ensure that your dog is properly trained and, at a minimum, knows the \"Come\" command when called.
• If you know your dog has aggressive tendencies, don’t bring him to an off-leash park. Aggressive behavior won’t be tolerated!
• Don’t bring young children into the park. Many dogs are not accustomed to being around children and your child could get hurt.
• Dog toys should be used at your own risk. Wadsworth Community Dog Park is not responsible for lost, stolen, or destroyed personal items.
• Discourage digging and fill any holes that are created.
• If a grassy section of the park has been cordoned off, respect this, as these areas must be temporarily \"rested\" for proper rejuvenation.
• Park users must be 18 years of age or older and may bring no more than 2 dogs into the park at a time.
• Choke, pinch, harness, and shock collars should be removed before entering the park.
The City of Wadsworth is not liable for injuries to persons, other animals, or damage/destruction of your personal property.
