Persons bringing dogs into or out of the Facility are required to utilize the designated dog entrance, if applicable to the Facility.

Dog owners shall be responsible for any damage caused by their dogs to ALX Community property or the property of other members, as well as for any incremental cleaning or repair costs associated with the presence of their dogs in and about the Facility.

Dog owners shall be responsible for any medical bills from injuries, bites or scratches to ALX Community staff, members, or other users of or visitors to the Facility.

Dog owners must indemnify ALX Community against any loss, claim or liability resulting from the presence of their dogs in and about the Facility and the Building.

Dog owners shall be responsible for their dogs’ wellbeing, behavior, and biological needs (scooping, bagging, cleaning, and sanitizing).

No dog shall be left unattended in the Facility at any time.
