Southwest City Dog Park Rules

Membership status is subject to review by the SWCDP Board and SWCDP Safety and Incident Committee in the event of a written complaint regarding either an owner’s or dog’s behavior or a repeated disregard for the dog park rules. All members are encouraged to question visitors without current park tags, or speak up regarding people who are not respecting the dog park. Should you have concerns about membership, security, incidents please send email to the SWCDP Secretary, secretary.swdogpark@gmail.com - she will forward to the appropriate person.

Only members who have signed the waiver enclosed with SWCDP application will be allowed to bring dogs into the dog park - and such dogs must be registered through the SWCDP application process and have a current membership. Members may bring a human guest with them – but member must agree to assume responsibility for guest (s) while inside the dog park. Members may not bring canine guests into the dog park, ever.
Members agree to abide by the “No SWCDP tag, No admittance, No exceptions” rule. All dogs must wear the SWCDP current season tag at all times. If there is a valid reason for the dog not to wear the tag, this must be approved by SWCDP Secretary – and the member must agree to carry the tag while the dog is inside the dog park.
Members agree to hold the SWCDP gate code confidential, as a member privilege, and agree not to give out the code to non-members or to facilitate non-member entry into the dog park by holding gate open for dogs without SWCDP tag or inviting non-members to “try it out”.
No children under age 8 allowed inside the dog park. Children under 14 must be accompanied by an adult. Member dogs may, or may not, have experience being around children; being child-friendly is not a requirement for dog membership and experiences will vary.
Dog owners are responsible legally and financially for any injury caused by their dogs,
Dog owners must pick up their dog’s poop and place in grey or tan trash cans – not in blue recyclable cans. SWCDP provides bags for poop pick up throughout the park and a poop scooper is provided in the Main and Alternate play areas.
Dog owners must stop dog from digging and must fill any holes caused by their dogs. Extra dirt is available in the Dirt Bin.
Collars Dogs must wear a buckle, snap or Martingaale-style (nylon or leather) collar. Choke, prong, pinch, spiked, loose-fitting collars are not permitted
Leashes: Dog owners must have the dog’s leash in their possession at all times. If a situation arises in which the dog must be leashed and taken out of the fenced area, the owner is ready to take immediate action. Retractable “Flexie” leashes are not permitted.
Control: All dogs must be under visual and voice control by owners; excessive barking is not permitted, and uncontrollable dogs must be removed. Having a bad day? Go home, come back later. Dog humping is not permitted. Dogs shall not be left unattended.
Capacity: No member may bring more than three dogs into the dog park at any one time. No more than 100 dogs may be on SWCDP grounds at any given time (unless a SWCDP sanctioned event).
Gates & Equipment & Pools/Hoses: All gates must be closed, including gates to agility or other game areas. Members must follow guidelines for pool, hose, and other resource use, as directed by emails and/or signage, per season, as needs arise.
Courtesy – Resources: Be respectful of other member’s wishes; if your dog is creating angst for a member dog or human, adjust the behavior or leave. Do not take supplies or resources from the grounds, including, not limited to first aide, toys, tools, lawn equipment, etc.
Professional dog trainers may not use the facilities in the conduct of their business; however, SWCDP may from time to time bring trainers to a sanctioned SWCDP event.
The following are not permitted in the fenced area:
- a) Dogs under 4 months old
- b) Female dogs in estrus (heat)
- c) Sick or injured dogs or dogs with external parasites
- d) Aggressive, uncontrollable dogs

- b) Sit, stand, climb on or over the fence, trees, water stations, or pools or agility equipment

Southwest City Dog Park is a self-directed playground with no day-to-day management supervision. In order to have a dog park facility that is relatively safe, clean, and fun - it is necessary for every SWCDP member to adhere to the dog park rules and to help enforce the rules by monitoring the playground and reporting issues that cannot be handled easily as they arise. This is a collective effort and success depends on you, the members. Members who fail to comply with SWCDP rules or fail to comply with directives from the Safety and Incident Committee regarding outcome from complaints or incident reports may have their membership either temporarily or permanently revoked.

I agree to comply with the rules. I wish to continue with my registration.*

Waiver
Southwest City Dog Park Waiver / Release of Liability

By entering Southwest City Dog Park I agree to indemnify, defend, hold harmless City of St. Louis ("City"), and Southwest City Dog Park (“SWCDP”), and their officers, agents, employees, volunteers from any/all lawsuits, damages, claims, judgments, losses, liability, or expenses arising out of:
- Any personal injuries, property damage, or death (including any and all injuries suffered any dogs) which I may sustain while I am using this park or any associated equipment owned by, donated by, or under the control of the City or SWCDP, or which I or my animal cause while I am using this park or any equipment owned by donated by, or under the control of the City or SWCDP, or while participating in any activity in Southwest City Dog Park sponsored by the City or SWCDP.
- Any injury or death which results or increases by any action taken to medically treat me for any injury I may sustain or which I or my animal may cause while I am using this park or any equipment owned by, donated by or under the control of the City or SWCDP, or while participating in any activity sponsored by the City or SWCDP.
I understand and agree with the following

1) Use of the dog park is self-directed and used with the understanding of “use at my own risk”.

2) That SWCDP (or The City) does not carry insurance to cover users of this dog park and I understand there are risks associated with any dog park for myself, my dog (s) or other humans who may be my guest (s).

3) Unleashing my dog and being physically present at SWCDP involves risks of injury to me, any individual accompanying me, other people, my dog(s) and other dog(s), including but not limited to, risks resulting from aggressive dogs, unpredictable behavior, and lack of training.

4) SWCDP does not guarantee that dogs in the park are safe or healthy and that despite the efforts of SWCDP to ensure owners have complied with SWCDP registration procedures, there is a risk that not all dogs present in the dog park are licensed and vaccinated as required by law.

5) Additional risks include, but are not limited to, dog fights, dog bites, theft, disappearance or unlawful capture, escape over and under fences, being knocked down, chased or tripped by a dog, and vegetation or standing water that may be unhealthy if consumed.

6) I assume all risks associated with using the dog park, including its fixtures and equipment, in an unsupervised manner, including the risk of injury to me, any individual (including supervised children age 8 or older) accompanying me and my dog (s).

I further understand and agree that
SWCDP is not managed by the City of St. Louis or its Parks Department. In accordance to St Louis City Ordinances 66595 and 57335, the dog park management responsibilities are handled through a SWCDP management team who are SWCDP members and who donate their time as volunteers to oversee dog park membership process, adherence to the rules and general operations and maintenance, SWCDP management decisions are final and binding. The SWCDP management does not provide ongoing, day-to-day on-site supervision, except for SWCDP sanctioned activities. Members are expected to adhere to SWCDP rules and assist in monitoring the dog park; be responsible for their own behavior and that of their registered dog (s).

And, I acknowledge that I
- agree not to give out the gate code or allow non-members to use my membership;
- agree to immediately report any unsafe property conditions or dog fights with injuries or non-member dogs (trespassers) on site to SWCDP;
- attest to the fact that the dog (s) and human (s) being registered for an annual SWCDP membership have not previously had a dog park membership terminated at SWCDP or any other dog park due to inappropriate behavior or for other reasons.
I have carefully read this release of liability and understand and fully agree with its contents. I have received a copy of the rules for dog park usage and agree to abide by these rules. Acceptance of the terms and conditions of this release and adherence to dog park rules are conditions of approval, retention, and renewal of membership to Southwest City Dog Park (SWCDP). SWCDP membership may be revoked at any time for non-compliance.

This is a release of liability. Do not sign if you do not understand or do not agree with all its terms. Any dog owner / handler using the park must sign this waiver. This means if you have more than one person in your household bringing your dog to SWCDP, he/she must also sign the waiver. If the applicant has not attained the age of legal majority (18), the signature of parent or guardian shall also be required.
