🐾 A POLITE REMINDER TO ALL VISITORS 🐾

We would like to kindly remind everyone that NO DOGS ARE PERMITTED INSIDE OUR WATERFOWL PARK. 🚫🐕

This rule applies even if your dog is on a lead. Being on a lead does not make it acceptable to bring a dog into the park.

Our park is home to a variety of waterfowl and other wildlife, and the safety and wellbeing of our birds, wildlife, volunteers and visitors must always come first.

We appreciate that many people have well-behaved dogs, but unfortunately the rule must apply to all dogs equally.

Please respect our NO DOGS signs and the requests of our volunteers. Our volunteers should not have to approach visitors and ask them to leave because they have brought a dog into the park.

We thank everyone who continues to support us and respects the park, its wildlife and the rules we have in place. 💜🦆🦢

Care • Respect • Protect 🪶
