The list of dog parks shown will be sorted by distance from your current location. Therefore, if you are visiting a new area, you can easily check out a new dog park near you!

Check Into a Dog Park ✅
Upon your first visit, you will receive a notification, Welcome to Dog Park Name, indicating you have been checked into the dog park. This notification appears after two consecutive location reports have been sent to the Fi Server, and you must be at the park for at least 5 minutes for this to process. Your first visit & every visit after will show when you & your dog arrive at the dog park on the Timeline Tab. The amount of times you visit a dog park will automatically be adjusted per visit. Your dog's rank on the Park Leaderboard will increase the more you visit the park!
Once you check in to a dog park, a notification will appear in your Timeline Tab feed:

Park Leaderboard 🏆
For some friendly competition, turn to your Park Leaderboard. You can view the top 100 dogs based on the number of visits they have made to the dog park. Each dog park has its own leaderboard. Leaderboard positions are based on the past 28 days of dog park check-ins and are updated in real time.
Each dog shown in the leaderboard will also have the number of dog park visits shown in their profile card. You can also choose to follow any of your new Fi friends shown on the leaderboard. Simply tap Follow under the number of visits shown.

Park Visitors 🐩 🐕
You can easily see other members of the Fi Pack who frequent a dog park near you. Their profile will show up under Park Visitors. If a dog is currently at the dog park, under their profile picture, it will say Here Now (in blue). If you meet a new Fi friend, you can start following their Fi Profile by tapping Follow. If you already follow a park visitor, it will show View Profile under the dog's profile picture instead of Follow.

Opting Out of Fi Dog Parks
If you do not want to show up in Dog Parks altogether, you can fully opt out of Fi Dog Parks by turning your Social Features OFF. This will fully remove you from all of Fi's social features. See: What are Social Features? You will still have access to the dog parks list, but your view and others' view of your dog park visits will be hidden.
