DOGS and other PETS - GHYC Board Ratified: 2023-11-15

It is of utmost importance to GHYC, that we maintain fun and safe environments for members and/or pets on Club cruises and other Club event locations.

Dogs and/or other pets are permitted on cruises and other events unless otherwise noted in event documentation or venue rules.

Where pets are permitted:

1. When on the dock(s) or in an event area they shall remain on a leash no more than 4 feet in length and under the direct control of the member owner.
2. Members are responsible for picking up after their pet(s) and disposal of pet waste into proper containers.
3. Any damage caused by an animal will be the direct responsibility of the owner.
4. If a pet has a history of aggression toward other pets and/or people, that pet shall be physically restrained when not on the owner’s boat or other secure area.
5. Owners are responsible to keep their pets under noise control at all times. Excessive barking or other distracting pet noise will not be tolerated especially when the pet is left alone on the owner’s vessel, car or other area.
6. Pet owners will also adhere to any pet rules/restrictions posted at a marina or other event site.
