Collect & Dispose
If your dog drops it, bag it and bin it.
A clean park is more enjoyable for everyone. Bags are your best accessory.
Community Education Campaign
Respect the Park
Nine practical ways to help keep Regina dog parks safe, clean and welcoming.
Off-leash dog parks are shared community spaces. Each of us plays a part in making them safer and more enjoyable for dogs, their people and the wider community.
The Respect the Park Commitment
Respect the park.
Respect each other.
Respect the dogs.
Responsible off-leash use is not complicated. It begins with awareness, consideration and a willingness to share the space respectfully.
Off-leash access is a privilege.
Know Your Dog
If your dog does not listen, it is not ready for off-leash.
Know how your dog responds to people, other dogs, distractions and recall before entering an off-leash space.
No Dogs in Heat
It is not fair. It is not safe.
Dogs in heat can trigger stress, conflict and unwanted attention. A little consideration goes a long way.
Eyes Up
Dog parks are not phone parks.
Stay aware of your dog and your surroundings. Being present helps prevent problems before they happen.
Be Kind
Great parks are built on kindness.
Be patient, respectful, thoughtful and inclusive—to dogs, to people and to the volunteers who support our parks.
Leash In, Leash Out
Off-leash starts at the gate.
Keep your dog leashed while travelling to and from the designated off-leash area. Unclip only once safely inside.
No Smoking or Vaping
Fresh air belongs to everyone.
Smoke, vapour, cigarette butts and cartridges can affect other park users and create hazards for dogs.
Licensed & Vaccinated
Protect your dog. Protect the park.
Licensing helps identify dogs and supports responsible ownership. Vaccinations help protect dogs and park users.
Kids Need Supervision
Little visitors need big supervision.
Children under 12 should be supervised by an adult and taught how to behave respectfully around unfamiliar dogs.
Stronger Parks. Stronger Community. Together.
Small choices make a big difference.
Thank you for helping keep Regina’s off-leash dog parks safe, clean and welcoming.
