Dogs

At Nashoba Valley, we appreciate the importance of dogs in our lives and therefore we remain one of the few orchards that allow dogs to enjoy our farm.

 

We, therefore, ask that you follow our simple rules:

• All dog owners are required to clean up and properly dispose of the waste of his/her dog. We do not provide bags for disposal so owners are required to bring their own.

• Dogs acting aggressively must be removed immediately.

• All dogs must be on a leash at all times with a maximum 6-foot leash. Dogs cannot be left unattended or tied to a tree or post and left unattended.

• Dogs are allowed in designated areas of the picnic grounds (Dog Friendly Tables, Family Friendly Tables and our outdoor tasting bar area. Dogs (except HC assisted)are not allowed in any building .

• Dogs are allowed in the orchards areas that are open for the picking of apples and peaches provided you have purchased a bag and are in the process of picking.  

• It is not possible to participate in a tour or tasting with your dog as those experiences are indoor activities

• Dogs must be under the control of their owners at all times and the owners must control excessive barking and noise at all times.

• All dogs must be licensed and vaccinated.

• Dog bathing is not allowed.

• Female dogs in heat are not permitted.

• No dog under 4 months old is permitted.

• Please make sure your dog understands that they are also responsible for the behavior of their owners!

•  

Being Responsible for your dog includes the responsibility to respect other visitors and our staff who might be afraid or allergic to various animals.  If you cannot follow the rules or you do not believe rules apply to you, we must request that you not bring your dog to the winery.  If you are asked to leave, please understand we do not make exceptions to our rules and they are not open to a discussion.

NASHOBA VALLEY RESERVES THE RIGHT TO HAVE ANY DOG REMOVED WITHOUT CAUSE AT ANY TIME AND TO CHANGE THESE RULES WITHOUT NOTICE.
