Pippero Pup Park

RULES & REGULATIONS

1. The Pippero Pup Park is open daily from dawn to dusk for the convenience of the public. Dog handlers must be 18 years of age or older.

The Pippero Pup Park, which is operated by the Warrick Parks Foundation, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, provides a safe, clean, and secure environment where owners may exercise and train their dogs off leash in Newburgh, Indiana. The Warrick Parks Foundation and Friedman Park does, however, reserve the right to close the dog park at our discretion. On occasion, according to terrain needs, parts

of the dog park may be closed to limit damage. Please pay attention to posted changes and capacity levels.
2. Entry into the Pippero Pup Park is at the risk of the dog owners or handlers. Dog owners or handlers are responsible and liable for any damage to property, persons, or other animals caused by their dog(s). If your dog injures another dog, you are required to assist any way needed, and to provide your name and contact
information to the owner of the injured dog. Failure to do so will result in being banned from the dog park.
3. Dog owners or handlers shall not have more than TWO dogs in the park at one time. Additional dogs can be in the park as long as an additional adult handler supervises. All dogs shall be accompanied and supervised by an adult owner or handler with a leash readily
available at all times. Children under the age of 13 are not allowed in the dog park. Children between the ages of 13 and 17 must be accompanied by an adult.
4. Dog owners or handlers are to remove their dog(s) immediately if any sign of aggressive behavior is shown.
5. All dogs must remain on leash until they are inside the first gated area. Choke, pinch, studded and chain collars, as well as gentle leaders, must be removed upon entering the dog park; however, some type of collar must remain on the dog at all times, with the Warrick County rabies and license tags affixed.
6. Please help to keep our dog park clean for all patrons to enjoy. Kindly place all litter into the provided trash receptacles. All owners or handlers must pick up any waste and messes left by their dog(s) to ensure cleanliness and to avoid potential health risks. (Stations are located throughout the park, so please use them.) Failure to do so may result in the loss of park privileges.
7. Dog owners and handlers are responsible for filling any and all holes dug by their pets.
8. All dogs must have a current rabies vaccination. Distemper, parvo, Bordetella (kennel cough) leptospirosis, and canine influenza are not required but are strongly recommended, as is flea and heartworm preventative medication. Rabies vaccinations are required by state law, but the infectious disease vaccinations are critical in protecting your dog from disease. Follow your veterinarian’s recommendation for vaccinations. Failure to do so is at your own risk.
9. All dogs must be licensed through the county/community in which they live. A current rabies tag and license tag must be worn and displayed by all dogs at all times.
10. Do not bring a dog into the dog park if:
a. The dog is ill with a viral infection, a bacterial infection, a parasitic infection (worms, fleas, ticks) or with an open wound(s)
b. The female dog(s) is in heat
c. The dog is under the age of six months as they usually do not have fully developed immune systems and have not completed a full program of vaccinations
11. Dogs are the only type of animals allowed in the dog park and fenced play areas.
12. The small dog area is limited to dogs weighing less than 30 pounds. No large dogs are allowed in the small dog area. If small dog owners are comfortable letting their small dog play in the main area, then they
may do so – at their own risk.
13. Dog food is strictly prohibited in the dog park (includes rawhide chews and bones). Small treats, toys, and frisbees are permitted, but may result in aggressive behavior, so use should be closely monitored.
14. Water dishes are permitted, but are subject to removal if left behind.
15. Alcohol, to***co products and glass containers are strictly prohibited inside the dog park.
16. Dogs, owners and park users creating a disturbance or violating posted rules must immediately leave the dog park if requested by Friedman Park officials, law enforcement personnel, park personnel, or their designated agent. People refusing to do so will be considered trespassing and police will be called to remove the trespasser.
17. Persistent violation of any dog park rules can result in revocation of park privileges.
18. To ensure the safety off all dogs, please make certain to properly close all gates when entering and exiting the dog park and fenced play areas.
19. If you want to ensure that the Pippero Pup Park remains in good working order, please consider purchasing a supporting membership. For more information, please visit www.WarrickParksFoundation.com/DogPark.
20. If you have an issue at the Pippero Pup Park, please fill out and incident report by visiting www.WarrickParksFoundation.com/DogPark. If you have any questions or concerns about these rules, please email [email protected]. In case of emergency, please call 911.

We are thrilled to have the Pippero Pup Park back open with this beautiful weather. As our signs state, please keep your pups out of the fenced-off, newly-seeded area. We are growing grass so that the pups will have a lush green space this spring. Thanks for your cooperation!

The park has reopened late this afternoon. Please be mindful of the area marked off that is not open. The grass needs some time to grow.

Progress! We are one step closer to finishing up the Pippero Pup Park update. We would like to give a huge thank you to Snow's Landscape & Nursery for installing the edging, which will allow us to have both a mulch and grass area, Aigner Construction for installing more mulch, and all of our volunteers for helping make our park both functional for the pups and aesthetically-pleasing. 🙌🏻 Stay tuned for more updates and opening information.
***The park is currently closed. Please do not try to sneak in. We have applied w**d killer throughout the park that needs to sit before dogs walk on it.

Here is some of the progress at Pippero Pup Park

09/07/2023

We've had quite a few questions regarding the current closing, so we thought a message might help. Please share...

Background:
We think it is important to first let everyone know that the Pippero Pup Park is FREE and open to the public. It was built with the financial support of individual and business donors. And, while the Warrick County Parks Department permitted us use of the land, no public dollars were used to fund or maintain this pup park. At the park's inception, our goal was to get the park open and functional as soon as possible and then make improvements as funding allows. This is a community park and requires community financial support to make these upgrades.

Current Upgrade:
The park is temporarily closed to better define the mulch area and create an all grass area in the large dog area. Weeds and grasses in the mulch area will be removed and the grass area will be reseeded. In the small dog area, we are installing a trail with mulch from the gate to include the shaded area – both of which are high traffic areas.

Future Upgrades:
Once we have the funds, we plan to concrete under both the small dog and large dog shaded areas. We are hopeful that we can raise the funds to do that in 2024.

How Can You Help?
1. Join our fundraising committee – and be willing to help plan, implement, and support fundraising events and programs for the park. The current committee is small and is doing its best to keep up with ongoing maintenance issues. We would love additional help! We need do-ers.
2. Make a donation to the Pippero Pup Park. All dollars raised help us update and maintain this space that we all love – and use for free! We need donors.

A Final Note:
One thing to keep in mind during this process is that the dogs love the park. They don’t seem to concerned about our plans or suggestions for the park but we as a community want this to be a functional AND aesthetically appealing space for all. Our hope is that we can partially open the park in early October with orange fencing to prevent dogs from ripping up the newly-seeded area.

Stay tuned and please join us in raising the funds necessary to keep this community dog park open and beautiful!

Great improvements are coming to the dog park. The park will be closed for a couple of months. Sorry for the inconvenience but the improvements will make the park better for all. Pippero Pup Park

We've had some complaints recently, so here is a quick recap of basic dog park rules to abide by so that this park remains open and enjoyable for ALL dogs. Remember this is a PUBLIC dog park. No one pays membership dues to visit, so everyone must obey these rules. If someone doesn't, you must provide a way for us to contact the offender (ex: ask an attendee if they know the name of the offender or get his/her license plate number). Thanks for being responsible pet owners.
