​
-> Neuropark is a Rehab park NOT a dog park. Ball and stick throwing is not allowed. Free running is fine. All Neuropark fields must be used as a rehab park. NO training shall take place at any of our fields. Neuropark has been created for adaptation & habituation through agency; meaning your dog must be able to freely explore while you observe your dog.

If it is not fresh poop from your dog, please be a team player and pick it up. The member entering after you, and I, are grateful if you do to keep Neuropark safe for all member dogs
​​
-> BALL THROWING
PLEASE DO NOT THROW BALLS OR STICKS AT NEUROPARLK. NEUROPARK IS SET UP AS A REHAB SPACE. INJURY IS LIKELY, EVENTHOUGH YOUR DOG MAY NOT ACTIVELY SHOW IT. BALL & STICK TROWING ALSO RIPS UP THE FIELDS AND MAKES IT UNSAFE FOR DOGS TO FREE RUN.
IT HAS ALREADY CAUSED A BIT OF DAMAGE TO THE PARKS, ESPECIALLY THE MAZE WHICH WE DO USE FOR ADAPTATION WORK.
THANK YOU
