Addison Events 2010

Be a Responsible Dog Owner

An issue the ACNA constantly hears about from residents is dog waste. Please pick up after your dog. The Town of Addison provides bags for free. Addison also has a leash law. Even though your dog may be friendly you don’t know if your dog may react unexpectedly to another dog or situation. Some residents have mentioned not wanting to frequent certain parks due to off-leash dogs and pet waste. Please keep Addison a friendly place for all residents by following the Addison ordinances regarding dogs.
