We welcome dog walkers to Catton Park. To help everyone enjoy their visit there are good practices that we would encourage dog owners to follow.
DOG WASTE
Please use the dog waste bins provided near all of the park entrances. Uncollected dog waste is very unpleasant and gets on the footware and clothing of all visitors. It is anti-social to not clear up after your dog and spoils the enjoyment of all visitors to the Park.
The annual cost to the Trust for disposing of dog waste is £5,000.
The Trust welcomes and contributions and donations towards this cost.
CONTROL OF DOGS
- Please keep your dog under control.
- Dogs are not allowed in the picnic area or Buxton Lodge.
- Dogs can be off the lead as long as they remain under close control.
- Your dog should be in your sight and come to your side when called.
- Dogs should not be allowed to chase wildlife.
- It is the dog owners responsibility if their dog attacks another dog or person.
PLEASE REMEMBER -
Not everyone likes dogs. Some people, especially children and the elderly may be frightened by even friendly dogs.
In the car park, loose dogs can cause accidents around moving cars or may run into the road.

Love the park and the way it is kept- beautiful natural environment. My nephews and niece love playing in the big old oak tree- so glad that that has stayed so that children can play on it. Thank you!

It is lovely to have a place that is so naturally beautiful in the middle of the city. It's an oasis of calm.
Reviews of the Park
It's an amazing place and so nice to have a park that can just be enjoyed as a park without being cluttered with children's play equipment, football goals etc. Those involved deserve congratulating for the variety and organisation and the way the natural environment is used to good effect.

It is truly a beautiful place and it would be a shame if it became too commercial.

Reviews of the Park
This is a beautiful park and it is lovely to see and enjoy the changing seasons there. The Friends of the Park's involvement at Parkrun is a model that should be shared with many more parks.
