Ridgewod NJ, Effective immediately the County of Bergen will begin to permit the use of dog parks in county parks.

🔹 Dog parks may be occupied by only one person or family residing in the same household with their dog(s) at a time.
🔹 Use of the dog park shall be limited to twenty (20) consecutive minutes when there is a wait for others to use the dog park. Person(s) waiting to enter the dog park shall maintain social distancing for themselves and their pets at all times.
🔹 If your dog has tested positive for the virus that causes COVID-19, talk to your veterinarian about when it is appropriate for your pet to go back to normal activities.
🔹 As much as possible, avoid touching common items in the dog park like gates, railings/fences, and water bowls, etc. Wash your hands or use hand sanitizer after touching items from the park.
🔹 Pet items such as toys are not permitted inside the dog run.
You are ALWAYS required to clean up after your dog and dispose all waste in the proper receptacle.

    Masks -on….but what will history Say..

  5. All colors mater

  6. Are they saying only ONE dog and it’s owner is allowed in there at one time? If so, what is the point of bringing your dog to the dog park?? I bring my dog to the dog park so he can play interact with the other dogs. This is totally insane. It is outside and there is no need to be next to other people when being there with your dog. What a bunch of crap our governor is for coming up with such a ridiculous idea. Other dog parks in New York are open without any restrictions.
