RULES FOR HUMANS
- All humans must be 21+ to purchase a day pass or sign up for a membership. All humans MUST be 21+ with a valid ID to enter. Infants that can be worn, held, or placed in a car seat type device and placed on a table may attend with their humans at any time. Toddlers and older children are ONLY permitted during Family Hours- see below.
- We do not allow outside drinks of ANY kind. (Yes, this includes water and all other non-alcoholic in a cup or bottle. There are several reasons this policy is in place- please do not violate it or you may be asked to leave.) We provide filtered ice water for free at the bar.
- You must clean up after potty accidents. Failure to pick up after your dog will result in us revoking your membership or pass. Please do so in a swift fashion.
- There is a 2 dog per Human limit. For example, if you want to bring 3 dogs, you must bring an additional 21+ human to help watch your dogs.
- We ask all humans to follow and respect our house rules and all instructions given to them by our staff while at The Thirsty Hound. Failure to follow our rules or comply with instructions given by our staff will result in you and your dog(s) being permanently banned. No refunds will be issued if you are permanently banned.
- Be a good human. We expect our members to treat each other, our team, and all the pups with respect and kindness. If you're being rude or aggressive or mean, we will ask you to leave. No refunds are given if you're asked to leave.
RULES FOR ALL HOUNDS
- Hounds must be friendly and well socialized to hang out at The Thirsty Hound. Most dog parks have acres of space and only a handful of dogs- lots of room to spread out. Our place is considerably smaller than your average dog park and is much, much more populated. Dogs here need to be comfortable being in big groups with all kinds of sizes, breeds, energies.
- If your pup displays signs of aggression (yes, including fear aggression), anti-social behaviors, or we believe he/she is at risk of starting a dog fight, you will be asked to leave to maintain the safety of our space and for the well being of your dog. No refunds will be issued if you are asked to leave due to a behavioral issue.
- Dogs must be up to date on Rabies, Distemper, and Bordetella. Documentation (electronic or paper) must be provided at check-in.
- Dogs over 1 year old must be fixed. Documentation must be provided at check-in. No females in heat.
- Puppies must be at least 4 months of age and have completed puppy shots to enter. Documentation must be provided at check-in.
- No persistent, antagonistic barking or frequent humping will be tolerated as both can cause dog fights and are generally annoying to our human guests. If your dog behaves in this manner, you will be asked to leave. No refunds will be issued if you are asked to leave due to a behavioral issue.
- We do not allow treats or feeding the dogs in the off-leash area. Yes, this includes training treats.
- Toys are only allowed in designated toy areas or during designated toy times.
