Plano's dog parks are for everyone, and it takes everyone to ensure these spaces are safe and clean for all. Play it safe by properly disposing of what your pup leaves behind. Make sure to keep an eye on your dog at all times.

More information including a full list of dog park rules can be found on each dog park page: https://www.plano.gov/dog-parks

Thank you for doing your part as a responsible dog parent! 🐾
