B.A.R.K. Rangers

Love hanging outside with your favorite paw-tner? South Suburban’s pet-friendly outdoor spaces are the perfect playground for your pup. To keep these spaces safe and clean, we need your help!

South Suburban is looking for pet ambassadors to become B.A.R.K. Rangers! These dogs and owners follow basic principles to ensure guests of all types have a paw-sitive experience.

B = Bag your pet’s waste
A = Always leash your pet
R = Respect wildlife
K = Know where you can go

If you and your best friend are interested, stop by one of our pop-up ranger booths to take the pledge. Your dog will get a certificate, as well as a badge to identify as a B.A.R.K. Ranger.

Stay tuned for upcoming pop-up booth dates and locations!
