Lodestar Park - if you bring your dog...
Lodestar Park has been friendly to dogs and those responsible for the
park recognize that it is a great place to walk your dog. However,
. Lodestar Park is not a “dog park”, rather, a park where dogs can be with
their owners. Unfortunately, there have been quite a few dog owners
who disregard the park’s regulations and posted signs. This disregard
for the regulations puts the existing policy at risk. If the current policy of
permitting dogs in Lodestar Park is to continue, the regulations must be
followed by everyone. While many may feel their dog is the exception to
the rule, none are.
Please keep Lodestar “friendly” to dogs
or you may lose this privilege.
Section 5-13.2 of the Fredon Township General Ordinances state that no
person owning any dog shall permit it to be upon any public place in the township unless it is
controlled by an adequate leash not more than six feet long.
It takes a cooperative effort to make the park safe and comfortable for everyone, so please be aware
of your surroundings and be considerate of others. This is for both the safety of your dog and the
safety of others enjoying the park. Leash laws exist to protect animals and people, and we urge you,
as a responsible pet owner, to abide by them.
In additionto the leash law, please follow these simple rules while visiting Lodestar Park:
· Please respect other park visitors: do not let your dog chase or jump on
others, including other dogs.
· Please stay with your dog at all times.
· Please clean up after your dog and dispose of waste in trash cans located
in the park.
