How does an off leash dog park work? An off leash dog park is for the dog-loving community. Here is what the parks have to offer:

  • Open year round, dawn to dusk.
  • Restrooms for people and drinking fountains for dogs (not available during winter months).
  • Double gated park entrance and six foot chain link perimeter fence.
  • Grassy area for playing fetch and a wooded, natural area for walking.
  • Paved path surrounding the grassy area makes the park wheelchair accessible.
  • Baggies for cleaning up after your pet are provided for your convenience.
  • Picnic tables available within the park.
  • Ample parking available.   

Dog Park Rules:

  • Hours of operation are typically dawn to dusk.
  • You remain liable for damage and injury inflicted by your dog(s) and subject to all applicable Idaho State and Kootenai County laws while in the off-leash area.
  • Dogs deemed potentially dangerous or dangerous by any recognized animal control authority are prohibited.
  • You must maintain control of your dog(s) at all times.
  • No more than three(3) dogs per handler and dogs must be attended at all times.
  • Any dogs exhibiting dangerous or aggressive behavior, e.g. biting, fighting, etc. are prohibited and must be removed immediately.
  • Female dogs in heat are not allowed.
  • You must leash your dog when it is outside the off-leash area; you must carry a leash for each dog while you are inside the off-leash area.
  • Remove your dog’s pinch or choke collar before entering the off-leash area.
  • Dogs must be vaccinated.
  • Any person bringing a dog into an off-leash area must clean up after his/her dog, dispose of feces in the provided containers at the off-leash site, and visibly carry equipment for removing feces at all times.
  • Any children less than 16 years of age in the off-leash area must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
  • Bring food into off-leash areas at your own risk – no glass containers or alcohol allowed.
  • Bicycles, skateboards, and other wheeled items are prohibited inside the off-leash area.

Dog park petiquette: Meeting and Greeting

  • Encourage dogs to greet slowly.
  • Side glances are good.
  • Curving the body away from the other dog is better.
  • Smelling the rear end is always best!
 
Take control by managing the situation: 


  • Ask your dog to face you.
  • Give your dog a treat for facing you.
  • Allow the unfamiliar dog to sniff your dogs behind.
  • Now have the unfamiliar dog face his owner.
  • Allow your dog to sniff the behind of the unfamiliar dog.

Proper dog park etiquette for humans:

  • Ask first before you give a treat to someone else’s dog.
  • If your dog is a dog park first timer, consider visiting the park during quiet times.
  • Please do not allow your dog to mount other dogs. 

​Plastic bags are needed for clean up. You can help keep our dog parks sanitary and enjoyable by remembering your responsibility for clean up. Waste disposal tools and receptacles are handy whenever and wherever you need them. You will find plastic bags as well as racks and shovels at several locations throughout the parks. Dog park patrons are encouraged to bring medium-sized plastic bags for the tube dispensers. This is a great way to help lower costs for the dog park and reuse bags that might otherwise be thrown away. Remember, reduce, reuse, recycle!
