Quispamsis has an Off Leash Dog Park near both Country View Estates and Fernwood Park. 

The province recommends that everyone chlorinate your well once per year, in the spring or fall, and after extended periods of non-use.  Chlorination, or "well shocking", refers to the process of flushing your well and water system with a chlorine solution (like Javex).  In addition to neutralizing potentially harmful bacteria, chlorination may be used to temporarily eliminate hydrogen sulfide (or "rotten egg") odours or to remove iron and manganese build-up. The province has a couple of helpful publications:

• Why Does My Well Water Smell Like Rotten Eggs? 
• How to Chlorinate Your Well Water

The province also recommends that everyone should regularly monitor their well quality by having their water tested twice a year, after the spring thaw and late summer/fall. 

There are 2 options for getting your well water tested: 

1. You can go through Service New Brunswick's designated laboratory. SNB pick-up and drop-off locations can be found here.
2. You can use one of many private laboratories in the Province that are capable of performing tests on well water.  The province recommends choosing a laboratory that is accredited by either SCC (Standards Council of Canada) or by CALA (Canadian Association for Laboratory Accreditation).   

Aztech Lab Inc. is a local laboratory located at 1 Pleasant Ave. in Quispamsis.  Their website also has an informative FAQ page.
