Good sized space but the ground of the dog park is covered in gravel, awful choice for a dog park

Such a wonderful place, BEFORE they bolted the gates open. No longer dog friendly in the main grass area, dogs must play on gravel. This was our favorite spot to bring Jasper before the bolts. Very disappointed.

This place is a bit of a hidden gem. I highly recommend bringing your dog here as it beats the chaos of Piedmont Park. The dog owners here are 99.9% of the time very mindful of their dog, any aggression seen so far has been intervened by the dog owner (this has only happened once over the two months we have been frequenting this park). There are 3 separate gated areas that you can use but almost all of the dogs frolic in the main area. There are also a considerable amount of shade on the perimeter of the park. The only two negatives I can note are that there is no running water here so bring your own, and it tends to get a little muddy in the main park area after rains. That being said the two separate smaller gated areas have a small gravel that is not harsh on your pup’s paws. No mud in there.
So if they re-sod the main area and at least get a hose pipe running out there, its a solid 4 barely missing 5 stars.

A great little dog park nestled in Loring Heights. There is a walking path around the park with both stairs and wheelchair accessible ramps. There are also two gated “isolation” areas for dogs who might need a timeout.
