The Cobourg Dog Park is owned by the Town of Cobourg and operated in partnership with CADDOG (Cobourg and District Dog Owners Group). With both an open field and a wooded trail, you and your dog will have a great time meeting new friends.
When visiting leash-free parks, be aware that there are unleashed dogs at play. You are entering the park at your own risk. Parents should supervise their children at all times. With the exception of designated leash-free parks and private property, all dogs must be on a leash.
Dog Etiquette in Parks |
In addition to knowing when and where dogs are allowed off leash, there are some simple rules for dog owners to follow:
Pit bulls must be muzzled and leashed at all times (Dog Owners Liability Act R.S.O 1990 C.D.16 Ontario Regulation 157/05). |
Potential Fines |
Animal Control bylaw enforcement takes place at all parks. Dog owners who do not have proper control of their pet or who do not follow the off-leash rules can face fines.Failure to clean up after your dog may result in a $100 Provincial Offences ticket, or upon summary conviction, a possible fine of up to $5,000 (exclusive of costs). There is one Town park where dogs can run leash-free: Cobourg Dog Park |
