Your dogs are welcome in Wildwood Park District parks.
However, as a courtesy to all patrons, the Wildwood Park District
would like to remind you that dogs must always be on a leash.
This is for the benefit and safety of everyone
involved. Many children and adults are uneasy
around strange dogs, so your attention to their
comfort is greatly appreciated. Don’t forget to
clean up after your dogs as well so that all patrons
have an enjoyable park experience.


If you would like to exercise your dogs, please visit one of the following Dog Exercise Areas in Lake County. Additional information may be obtained by calling Lake County Forest Preserve District.
