Good Canine Citizens

Please, if you choose to use the larger Colonel Sam Smith park remember we must share the area with everyone, man and animals alike. That means making sure that your beloved pet does not jump on, chase or attack any other species in the park, nesting birds included. Bad behaviour is bad behaviour.  And if individuals do not ensure their dog behaves in public, then people talk of banning dogs in public places. We never like to hear that.

To reiterate what Mary Lou Leiher said;
 “We advocate for making sure your dog is a good canine citizen, which doesn’t include killing small animals in the park.”
