Caring for your dog in Doncaster
Doncaster-specific tips every dog owner should know
River Don awareness
The Don can rise quickly after rain. Keep your dog on a lead near the river, especially on Hexthorpe Flatts towpath sections.
Wetland wildlife
Potteric Carr has nesting birds and sensitive wetland habitats. Keep your dog on the marked paths and avoid disturbing wildlife.
Yorkshire winter care
Doncaster winters can be cold. Dry your dog after muddy park walks and consider a coat for shorter-haired breeds.
Park community
