Pets and Service Animals Policy:
Pets and service animals are allowed to accompany their owners through the drive-thru portion of the park.

Please clean up after your pet.
Please review question 26 of the US DOJ FAQ regarding the exclusion of service animals.
Also review SD Codified Law 40-1-36 Unattended animals in standing or parked vehicles–Authority to remove–Liability for removal.
