RULES REGARDING ON/OFF-LEASH DOGS IN MEDINA PARK

 

A reminder that the City of Medina updated the ordinance for rules regarding on/off-leash dogs in Medina Park.

 

On-Leash Area West Side of the Park

All dogs must be on a leash, tether, or chain not to exceed eight feet in length when on the west side of the park.  So the biggest change is that the west side of the park is on-leash all year round.

 

Off-Leash Area

Dogs in the off-leash area on the east side of the park are required to be within positive voice control of their owner or handler and must respond promptly to the commands of the owner or handler.

 

Also, please remember, that no more than two dogs are allowed in the park at any time and dogs are not permitted in the ponds.

You can review all park rules at Medina Municipal Code 12.24 Public Parks at https://www.codepublishing.com/WA/Medina/
