1) each person is responsible for their own dog or dogs, no responsibility will be held by the organiser for damage done to, by or from other peoples dogs. All dogs should have third party liability insurance - which is either covered by pet insurance and/or your house contents insurance.
2) any dog who needs to be muzzled, must be done so. Never be ashamed that they need to wear one, we will all understand.
3) any dog that does not have good recall or may have issues returning should be kept on the lead, it will be down to the individual owner to decide if the risk of letting them off is worth it
4) any dogs who have issues with chasing small furries must be kept on lead, unless there is an appropriate time to let them off (ie. none around and people able to warn other users to stay away, until said dog is on the lead again). The parks and beaches are public places and open to all.
5) if your dog likes to play with toys then feel free to do so, but not all dogs like to share. If there are dogs in the group who are not sharers, they should be put on the lead until those who do have been caught. Equally some times playing with toys may cause packing behaviour, care should be taken when using toys in groups of dogs.
6) water and treats should be provided by the dogs owners, but be aware that some may want to eat yours. Always check with the owners if they may have some - some dogs may have allergies/intolerances or owners want the dogs to only accept treats from them.
7) the dogs are under the care of the owners at all time, they are responsible for their dogs only.
8) poo bags are a must, picking up after their dogs is vital
9) have fun, this is for the benefit of your dogs
