Dog Park Membership

Our first concern is the safety of owners and their dogs. For this reason Pit Bulldogs, American Bulldogs, Staffordshire Terriers, and mixes of these breeds or any other aggressive dogs are not allowed. There have been many owners and dogs seriously injured and even killed at dog parks across the country. Since this Park is operated and maintained by the Arlington Humane Society, a private non-profit organization, not a municipal government, we can and do have rules and regulations pertaining to safety, health and breed restrictions that city parks cannot impose.

All dogs must have current vaccinations and be on a monthly heartworm preventive. Dogs over 6 months of age must be spayed/neutered. Prior to joining, your dog will be temperament tested to insure that he/she can socialize and play with other dogs. Should your dog need some help with socialization and control, obedience classes are available through the Arlington Humane Society.

To become a member of the Dog Park, call the Arlington Humane Society to schedule a Temperment Test for your dog. Annual membership is $100 (tax deductable).
