SADDLEBROOKE DOG PARK RULES & ETIQUETTE

At SaddleBrooke Dog Park, we are committed to maintaining an environment that caters to the needs of both humans and their furry companions. While dog park rules may appear strict to newcomers, they are carefully crafted to ensure the safety and well-being of everyone who visits.

Similar to other dog parks, our rules have been established based on proven effectiveness in maintaining a safe and enjoyable atmosphere. Our top priority is to keep all visitors—both two-legged and four-legged—safe, healthy and happy during their time at the park.

Important Note: Please be aware that all activities within the park are conducted at your own risk. The SaddleBrooke Dog Park Association, along with its members and Board of Directors, will not be held liable for any pet injuries, injuries to individuals or loss of property that may occur during your visit.

Clean up after your dog. Waste receptacles are provided for your convenience. Maintaining a clean environment is crucial for the health of our dogs and visitors. If you notice a full receptacle or waste on the ground, please take the initiative to address it. Our park relies on volunteer efforts and everyone is responsible for its upkeep. There is no paid maintenance staff to clean up after you or your pet.

Manage aggressive behavior immediately. If your dog displays signs of aggression such as snarling, growling or snapping, leash and remove them from the park promptly. Dogs, like humans, have their moods and it's best to prevent incidents before they occur. If you notice your dog showing signs of dislike toward another, consider arranging visits at different times to avoid conflict.

Report incidents promptly. In the event of an incident, please complete the INCIDENT REPORT FORM. The Safety Committee will review all information and provide recommendations to the Board for resolution. Members of the safety committee must recuse themselves from cases involving their own dogs.

Ensure up-to-date vaccinations. All dogs entering the park must have current rabies vaccinations, as required by Arizona State Law. Members must provide renewal vaccination certificates to Judy Luning at ljudy59@aol.com. While rabies vaccination is mandatory, we also highly recommend keeping all other vaccinations, such as Parvo, current. Female dogs in heat or those that are sick or injured are not permitted in the park.

Follow leash protocols. Upon entering the de-leashing area, remove your dog's leash. Do not enter the park with your dog on a leash (unless classes are being held in that area). Please adhere to the following guidelines:

• Limit three dogs per handler.
• Supervise your dog(s) at all times.
• Excessive barking is not permitted.
• Pinal County Leash Law stipulates that dogs must be leashed outside the park.
• Exercise caution when entering or exiting the park to avoid conflicts between leashed and unleashed dogs.

Exclusive access for SaddleBrooke residents. The SaddleBrooke Dog Park is reserved for SaddleBrooke residents only. If you bring a guest, all rules apply to them as well.

No food allowed. Please refrain from bringing food into the park.

We appreciate your collaboration in guaranteeing a safe and pleasant experience for every visitor to the SaddleBrooke Dog Park!

We are a community-driven dog park located in the heart of the city. Our park is designed to provide a safe and friendly environment for dogs and their owners to socialize and exercise. We have a large open space for running and playing, as well as separate areas for small and large dogs. Our park is equipped with water fountains, waste disposal stations, and plenty of shade. We also offer obedience training classes and special events throughout the year. Come and join us for a paw-some time!
