The Citrus County Dog
at Bluebird Springs Park, 8750 W. Bluebird Springs Ln. , Homosassa. The park is open 7
days per week, dawn until dusk, and admission is free. This enclosure is provided to allow
well-behaved dogs to exercise and socialize, free of a leash, while under the immediate su-
pervision of a responsible adult.
Dog park users should follow the rules, so the use of this facility will continue to
be available. By using this facility, participants must agree to the following rules: 1) Canine
and human visitors enter at their own risk. 2) All dogs must be spayed or neutered. Unsteril-
ized dogs, and/or puppies under four months of age are prohibited. 3) Owners are legally
responsible for their dogs and any injuries caused by their dogs. If an incident occurs, own-
ers must exchange contact information before leaving the park. 4) All owners/handlers must
be at least 18 years old and have photo identification with them. All dogs should also wear
an owner identification tag at all times. 5) Each owner/handler must have a leash for each
dog in their possession at all times and may not have more than two dogs in her or his pos-
session at any time while in the park. 6) Dogs must be kept on a leash until inside the double
