About Orientation
Orientation is a free, but required class to learn all the dog park rules, dog behavior and etiquette. The Township asked us to provide an Orientation Class as part of the Registration process to mitigate potential problems seen at other dog parks.
You need to RSVP for an Orientation class here. Classes are free, but you need to add a class to your cart and “checkout” to be signed up.
Make sure to arrive early. Anyone arriving 10 minutes after the class begins will be turned away to attend a future class. There is a lot of information to go over so you must be present for the entire class to get credit. A Registration session will immediately follow. If you’d like to register the same day, please bring all of your paperwork with you.
All classes are held at the Township Activity Center – 425 Wells Rd in Doylestown. The Activity Center is behind the Township Administration building. Go to the right of the Admin building, past the garages, and turn left at the recycle bins. The Activity Center is the red building.
