Lake Fairfax Park’s Water Mine Family Swimmin’ Hole will have a dogs-only swimming event to end the 2016 season on Sunday.
Here is what you (and Fido) need to know about Dog Daze at The Water Mine:
The Water Mine will be open for dogs from 1 to 4 p.m. on Sept. 11. Suggested admission is $5 per dog. Proceeds will benefit the Fairfax County Animal Shelter.
Dogs will be able to splash and swim for the first time in the park’s Rattlesnake River.
Some rules:
All dog handlers must be 18 years or older and supervise dogs at all times – and no humans are allowed in the water.
All dogs must be current on vaccinations.
No female dogs in heat, puppies less than 3 months old, or aggressive, unruly dogs will be permitted.
Owners are responsible for cleaning up after their dogs (waste disposal bags will be provided).
