CBJ Dog Regulations

 

 

Summer CBJ dog regulations for sport fields and for parks start to take effect in March of each year.

Sport Field Use:  The Summer regulations for sport fields are in effect March 15 - October 15

(1) Summer hours for field use: Open weekdays until 3:00 p.m. unless school is in session.  Fields closed during school hours.  Signage posted at each site with rules regarding that area's usage.
(2) Closed Saturdays due to high sports use.
(3) Open Sundays during park hours.

 

Rainforest Trail Is an on leash only trail May 1 - September 30.  The trail will revert to an on leash or under competent voice control October 1 - April 30.

Sandy Beach/Savikko Park -

(1)  The first section of Sandy Beach below shelter area from the parking lot to the creek will be on leash May 1 - September 30.
(2)  From Savikko Road to the hillside bordering St. Ann's Street, encompassing the parking lot by the shelters, the shelter/playground area to the first culvert on the Treadwell Historical Trail and to the waterside of the logs, will be on leash at all times.

Signs at each location describe the regulations that are in effect in each area.  The regulations for Sandy Beach are complicated because parts of the beach in front of the picnic shelters are on-leash until you reach the stream.   However, you must pay attention to the posted signs because the message on the signs determines what regulations are in effect at that location.

Fall-Winter Dog Regulations -- begin to take effect during September.
Fall-Winter dog regulations for Juneau parks, recreation areas, and trails take effect September 30.

Sandy Beach   From September 30 till May 1, the beach area in front of the picnic shelters at Sandy Beach is an on-leash or competent voice control area.  The area around the picnic shelters and the surrounding playground are on-leash year round.

The Grateful Dogs Of Juneau reminds dog owners to read the signs that are posted at CBJ parks and sport fields for up-to-date information on the regulations that are in effect.  Click here to view the regulations.  If you have questions about the rules for dogs in your favorite CBJ park or recreation area, contact the CBJ Parks and Recreation Department.

 

Airport Dike Trail is a competent voice control trail.   At its November 8, 2010 meeting, the CBJ Assembly adopted an ordinance that would allow dogs on the Airport Dike Trail to be under competent voice control.  The ordinance was adopted unanimously by the CBJ Assembly and took effect on December 8, 2010.   Dogs that do not promptly respond to voice commands or that are not under control must still be on leash when using the Airport Dike Trail.  The Grateful Dogs have actively encouraged, promoted, and supported competent voice control for the Dike Trail for many years.
