SCOOP THE POOP
ALWAYS pick up after your pet; including during inclement weather, rain and snow
STREAM ON THE GREEN
Try to discourage your dog from urinating on sidewalks, grates & buildings. Go the extra distance and bring your dog to a grassy area.
POOP IS POOP
Go the extra mile; consider picking up that pile you come across which was left by someone else’s pet and technically is not your responsibility
HUSH THE PUP
Try to discourage your dog’s excessive barking; if you can’t control your pet’s barking, move away from the situation.
SSSSHHHH THEY ARE SLEEPING
Respect the “quiet hours” for South Loop neighbors that live on park’s. All Chicago parks close at 11 PM and open at sunrise.
STAY AWAY FROM PEOPLE’S PLANTS
Be considerate of our neighborhood’s gardens and landscaping.
NO DIG, YOU DIG?
Discourage your dog from digging holes so that the neighborhood doesn’t look like a war zone with land mines.
HANG ON TO YOUR DOG
Be aware that there is a City ordinance that requires dogs be leashed in City parks; tickets have been written for dogs off-leash.
You can print the Dog Smarts brochure and pass it around!
“The Good, the Bad, & the Ugly“, is a nice article about dog parks
