The Rules of B.A.R.K.

We want you and your pet to have a great time in West Vincent Township! Follow these rules to protect yourself, your pet, and the parks.

 

🚮Bag Your Pet’s Waste

Keep WVT parks clean by bagging

and properly disposing of your pet’s

waste. Many parks provide bags and

trash cans for your convenience.

 

🐕‍🦺Always Wear a Leash

Unleashed pets can stress, injure, or

scare other visitors and are more

likely to encounter hazards. Keep your

pet safely restrained on a leash at all times.

 

🐿️Respect Wildlife, Dogs, and People

A respectful pet stays on trails, avoids

wildlife, and gives space to other

dogs and visitors.

 

🐾Know Where You Can Go

All WVT grounds and trails are pet‑friendly. Consider how your pet reacts to other

dogs and people, and choose spaces

that keep everyone comfortable.
