Located at 526-598 N Sheridan Ave, Lions Park Dog Park is one of the most popular dog parks in Sheridan, Wyoming. It boasts spacious, fenced-in grassy areas for your furry friends to socialize and run off-leash safely. With double-gated entries, you and your dog can enter and exit without worries, and there are separate areas for both large and small dogs, enhancing safety and comfort for pets of all sizes. The park’s amenities include covered seating, shade trees, picnic tables, benches, water fountains (sometimes seasonal), agility equipment, and even a small pool or kiddy pool during warmer months. Waste stations with poop bags and trash bins are provided to keep the area clean, though users are encouraged to always pick up after their pets.
This pet-friendly park in Sheridan is popular among locals and visitors traveling through Wyoming, offering easy access from the highway and adjacent human-friendly amenities like a playground for kids. Annual membership with proof of vaccinations is required for access, keeping the environment safe. The park does have areas prone to mud after rain and occasional maintenance issues, but regular mowing and community involvement ensure a generally positive experience. With its abundant space, playful features, and community feel, Lions Park Dog Park is a must-visit destination for dog lovers in the Sheridan area.
It’s not because it’s not a great park, it is, BUT NO one apparently picks up their dog poop. Despite there being adequate stations, bags, garbage, poop scoopers, a small pool, picnic tables….this park is awful because of the massive poop. I’ve tried a couple different times and even my dogs don’t like it. They’re covered in poop when they are finished and get back in the car. One of my dogs just stands at the gate and hardly walks around. Some dog owners are disgusting and ruin it for those who aren’t.
Adorable and well taken care of park. Really nice size, fenced dog area. They even had a kiddy pool for the dogs lol
Very nice park! Visiting from out of town and needed a place to let my golden retriever puppy stretch his legs! Met some super nice people there and the dogs were great too!! Water and poop bags were provided!!
**Watch out for TJ the Jack Russell Terrier**
This dog park is very nice with great people and the larger dogs all got along great. Park does have a water fountain for the dogs as well. Park is mainly nice grass area but there are some bare spots were water and mud collect by one of the entrances.
The only problem we had was a little Jack Russell Terrier named TJ who went after our 102 lb Goldador-(Golden/Lab mix), luckily our dog is very patient and did not retaliate. Owner screamed to stop the attack which did work luckily. This dog has no discipline and should be neutered to help with the aggression. Just beware of the smaller dogs. Ideally, the city should put in a separate area for the small dogs at this location.
Great fenced dog park. Approx. 8 foot tall fences with double entry gates. Didn’t find any poo on ground. Grass nicely mowed. Some covered seating. Nicely treed. My dogs had a blast running, smelling and checking out the vehicles from safely behind the fence. Great place to stop. Water was not currently turned on. Bring your own. Also nice kids playground next to the park.
