🐾 Kids at the Dog Park: Real Stories, Safety Risks & Smarter Solutions

Watkins Park – Mount Airy Dog Park is a community-friendly area located in Mount Airy, MD. It offers a safe and enjoyable environment for dogs to play and socialize.
Two very spacious fenced areas with benches for the humans and shaded areas for the doggos. There’s also a water fountain just outside the place with a bowl for the dogs and a bottle-filling piece for the humans. Easy access from the Watkins Park parking lot.
There are signs posted telling people not to park at the school to access the dog park. It’s really not that long of a walk from the main Watkins parking lot.
People always bring their dogs to the park but never enter the dog park. It’s really stupid. Your dogs want to come in and play. Let them. Stop denying your dogs social interaction you monsters. 5 stars.
Nice shady walk and dog park!
Love coming here! The way the fenced in areas are in three sections is so helpful to have the number of dogs spread out to not create a problem. There is a nice water fountain for humans and dogs outside the fence, but unfortunately, it is turned off in the winter, so there no access if there are nice days in Nov/Dec. One time we visited, the grass had just been cut, and whoever did it just ran over all the toys and tennis balls, destroying them. So bring your own toys just in case.
Met some nice people, made a new friend. Some of the dogs not so friendly—i did not see it divided into small and larger dogs as many parks are.
