Leashed, Licensed, Loved
We get it; your dog likes to run, play catch, and be with other dogs. That's why the City of Shoreline
has three o-leash dog areas and is adding two more! Go to shorelinewa.gov/parks to learn more
about them.
However, if you aren't in one of our o-leash dog areas, then the law requires that your dog be
leashed. While in a park, around the city, or in your neighborhood, all dogs are required to be on a
leash.
Why leash your dogs?
- It keeps your dog and other dogs and animals safe.
- It's courteous to other park users – not everyone feels comfortable around dogs, including other dogs.
- It's the law and you could be fined - $25 for the first violation and $50 for each violation thereafter within a year.
