1. Why isn’t my dog park fob working?

Permitted dog fobs are set to deactivate on the dog permit anniversary date or based on vaccination expiration, whichever occurs first. If your fob is not working, one or more of your vaccination records have likely expired. If your vaccination records are current, it may be time to renew your permit.

2. How can I reactivate my dog park fob?

New vaccine records can be uploaded to your dog park permit application on the Opengov registration site. 

If your membership has expired, please visit MyRec, create an account and purchase a new membership via this site.

If you have trouble uploading your documents, please contact Bonnie Black for further assistance. Once records are received, your fob will be reactivated to your next vaccine expiration or permit anniversary, whichever is first. Dog park registration support is available Monday - Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., except on holidays.

Upon registration, DAPP or DHPP combination (distemper, hepatitis/adenovirus, parvovirus and parainfluenza), Bordetella and Rabies vaccinations are required along with a negative stool sample.
