ATTENTION DOG OWNERS!!

Dogs must always be leashed everywhere on the property, whether inside out outside.That’s the rule here and the law in Provincetown. We have

had several recent complaints from people who have encountered unleashed dogs on walkways, on grassy areas, and in roadways. They’re concerned about the saftey and well-being of the dogs and, especially, of the people around them.
