Dog walking

At Big Stone Wetland Management District

Dog Walking on our district

Help protect our wildlife, leash your pet, pick up and pack-out pet waste. Dog training is not allowed at the refuge.

The use of hunting dogs, provided the dog is under the immediate control of the hunter, is permitted. Dogs are permitted for upland small game and migratory birds during daylight hours. 

B.A.R.K Principles

• Bag pet waste and pack it out (or use designated trash receptacles where available).

• Always keep your pet on a leash.

• Respect wildlife by keeping dogs a safe distance away and out of restricted areas.

• Know where you can go before arriving
