KEEPING THE ROSSMOOR DOG PARK SAFE & HEALTHY FOR ALL

The Rossmoor Dog Park Club (RDPC) is sanctioned by the Golden Rain Foundation (GRF) and is dedicated to maintaining a safe, welcoming, and well-kept environment for dogs and their guardians. Our charter is to establish social guidelines for park users, support park maintenance and enhancements, and encourage responsible dog guardianship throughout the community.

"Responsible Dog Guardians" and their well-behaved dogs are always welcome at the Rossmoor Dog Park and need not be members of the RDPC. However, we ask that all park visitors share our commitment to maintaining a friendly and respectful environment.

The RDP is not a picnic area. For safety, please do not bring food or treats for dogs or people. Glass containers are strictly prohibited, and alcohol is strongly discouraged.

RDPC members must be Responsible Dog Guardians and act as ambassadors of the Club, setting the standard by exemplifying its values.

Responsible Dog Guardianship Principles

• Responsible Dog Guardians ensure the well-being, health, and happiness of their furry companions by following these key principles:
• Commitment – A lifelong responsibility; prioritize your dog’s needs.
• Nutrition – Provide a balanced diet and fresh water.
• Exercise & Stimulation – Ensure regular activity, play, and mental engagement.
• Healthcare – Schedule vet visits, vaccinations, and grooming; seek care when needed.
• Training & Socialization – Teach good behavior and expose dogs to new experiences.
• Safety – Provide a secure home, leash in public, and proper ID.
• Love & Companionship – Offer attention, affection, and positive reinforcement.
• Respect for Others – Clean up, control barking, and ensure safety.

RDPC members strive to uphold the Club’s charter, mission, and values, working together to create a harmonious space where all dogs and their guardians can safely socialize and enjoy the park.

“Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.”
