Baltimore Animal Recreation Center (BARC) Park includes a 1.5-acre park for large dogs and a .75-acre park for small dogs. Both parks include water fountains for the dogs.
Barc Park's mission is to provide a clean, safe and secure off-leash area where well-behaved dogs can socialize, exercise, and play. A core group of area dog lovers worked cooperatively with the Department of Recreation and Parks to develop plans and regulations for the dog park.
To ensure that Barc Park is a safe and enjoyable experience for both canines and humans, all dogs must be immunized and licensed. Park membership is required each year, as the registration form verifies the necessary documentation.
Annual family membership is $25.00.
Read the "Dog Park Etiquette: Member's Guide" and decide if this off-leash dog park is right for you and your dog(s).
Check to make sure your dog's vaccination shots and county license are up to date. Your dog must have current rabies shots and be licensed in the county they reside before you can register.
Licensing forms are available at full service libraries or at a Humane Society. They can also be obtained by calling 410-887-3630, or online for Baltimore County residents at: http://www.baltimorecountymd.gov/Agencies/permits/pdm_miscperm/pdm_animlicfee.html
