Some of the park rules that you must follow with regards to your dog are as follows. First, you must avoid letting your dog wander to areas that are not designated as pet-friendly areas. Keeping your dog on a leash that is no longer than six feet long is also a must. If you choose to stay over and camp at the park, you should be aware that there is a limit of only two pets/dogs per campsite. It is also a good idea to make sure that you carry some poop bags with you so that you can clean up after your pooch.
