Great place to bring your pup for a little fun. I’ve seen a few comments on “mean dogs” but those people need to get real… dogs are dogs they are going to be rough sometimes so just stay close and recall when needed. No need to apologize for your dog. If everyone chips in the place stays pretty clean.
This was my dogs first time at this dog park. She went to one other one but was by herself. I was a little nervous at first because she’s a little wild. But when she first got in she made some friends. Everyone was so welcoming and the dogs weren’t so crazy. The small dog area was very nice but my dog is a big dog in small body so she liked being around the other dogs and having plenty of space to run. Some dogs kinda go into it but owners were very quick to deescalate the situation. Definitely tired her out for the day and will be going back to hopefully see some familiar doggies.
Vicious dog warning (02/2025). Dog appears to be full or partial Airdale Terrior., possibly named Buddy. Owner is a short man with a muscular build. This dog was wearing a bite collar with the bite prongs turned outward. This dog repeatedly attacked my dog and almost knocked me over. The owner’s response was to say leave them (the dogs alone) ; they are working out who is dominate. Before I left, this dog drew blood on my dog and another dog owner.
Working up here on a contract, I have met great people and look forward to seeing them every time. My dog has made friends and enjoys the space, clean grass, shade, and available water.
Met some wonderful people there and we’ll behaved dogs. I go there every time I am on my work contract.
