At BMM, we take care of buildings grounds, and common areas every single day—but we know it’s not just the people who enjoy these spaces. Our four-legged friends love a well-kept dog park just as much as we do! A clean, safe dog park doesn’t happen by accident—it takes care, attention, and yes, a little maintenance magic.
So, let’s talk dog park rules and safety—not in the boring “posted sign nobody reads” way—but in a way that keeps tails wagging and owners smiling.
1. Pick It Up, Pup Parents!
We love your dogs, but… well, let’s just say the grounds keeping crew doesn’t love surprises on the grass/turf. Always bring waste bags and use them. A clean park = happy neighbors, happy dogs and happy maintenance technicians.
2. Leashes On, Drama Off
Most dog parks are designed for pups to run free—but make sure you’re inside the designated off-leash area first. Keeping leashes on outside the gate helps avoid those awkward hallway-style standoffs where dogs size each other up like it’s the Wild West.
3. Hydrate Like a Pro
Just like humans, dogs need water breaks. Bring a backup water bottle and collapsible bowl so Fido never goes thirsty.
4. Know Your Pup’s Play Style
Not every dog is a social butterfly. Some are introverts. Some are… well, divas. Keep an eye on your pup’s behavior and be ready to step in if playtime gets too rowdy. Our job is keeping the park safe and functional—your job is making sure your furry friend is a good neighbor.
5. Respect the Turf
From the grass to the benches, everything in the dog park is built to last—but only if it’s treated with care. No digging up sprinkler heads and no climbing on fences (that goes for humans too). Trust us—maintenance techs see it all.
6. Timing is Everything
Hot summer days can turn pavement into a frying pan for paws. Early mornings and evenings are the safest play times. Bonus: it’s cooler for you, too!
At the end of the day, dog parks are all about community—and just like a well-maintained building, they work best when everyone does their part. We’ll make the fences sturdy, maintain the grass/turf, and keep the area safe for you and your four-legged friend. You keep the leashes, treats and poop bags handy. Deal?
Now, go let those pups run wild (safely)!
