    Rigtig fint område at lufte hunden i. Den er opdelt med hegn i flere sektioner så selv om området er stort er det alligevel overskueligt

Rules and responsibilities in dog parks

Keep your dog under control

Make sure your dog is always under control and comes when you call. That way everyone has a good time.

Pick up after your dog

Always pick up after your dog to keep the area clean and pleasant for other visitors.

Tips for a good visit

Bring water
