Where do I dump my dish water? ❌ In the forest ❌ In my fire pit ✔️ Down a vault toilet By washing your dishes in a responsible way, you are helping protect the parks we all love: bit.ly/30u03KO

Nothing beats walking in a park with piles of poop left behind for others to see, smell, or step in. 😍 Wait, what? That sounds "pawful!" 🤨 When visiting Ontario Parks with your pet, picking up your dog’s waste is required. And no, hanging it in a tree does not count. 💩🌳
