Located in the heart of Sun City, Arizona, Duffeeland Dog Park is a private yet welcoming space for local residents to let their dogs run free. This well-maintained, wheelchair accessible park is managed by the Sun City HOA and offers a safe, fenced-in environment for dogs and their owners to enjoy. A keycard or code is required for entry, making it exclusive for homeowners association members, but visitors mention that guests are generally welcomed with courtesy.
The park features decomposed granite grounds for play, plenty of benches and chairs, and numerous shaded areas provided by mature trees and nearby structures—perfect for escaping the Arizona sun. There is one large common area where dogs of all sizes can socialize together, and poop bags are provided to help keep the park clean. Owners appreciate the friendly community, with many regulars gathering for daily chats while their pets play.
Technically this park is private to the local homeowners association. People seemed to be very welcome to allowing you to push the button and come on in. Please be sure to clean up after yourself as that’s the most important part. It is a very beautiful park. Well groomed well maintained friendly dogs, mostly older and lots of wonderful benches to sit on.
A very nice Dog Park for Sun City residents. Most people pick up after their dogs and other people will walk around and pickup after other dogs. 😊 They also have a book on site with business cards for places recommended like, vets, groomers, trainers…etc. Which is pretty nice. This is one big park with no place designated for large or small dogs. But if owners watch their dogs while they are there, the dogs will get along just fine and learn how to mingle without getting in trouble.
Went twice and it smelled like dog urine both times I went. I didn’t run into any big problems but it seemed like most people had no idea where their dogs were or what they were doing…. Some dogs dominant and not well mannered. Bring a fly swatter or something if you don’t want dogs in your face and in your crotch.
It’s the BEST. All people and dogs are members of Original Sun City, Az. One must have a keycard or code to get in. They meet daily for talk, run with pups. Pups are big and small. No separation. It’s super clean. No grass tho. Only decomposed granite. So the dogs may get dusty. Bigger dogs may scare your small boisterous. Dog ( my Kika). But won’t harm her ( Thank God)!!!
This dog park is part of the facilities provided by Sun City HOA. Very nice and clean. Lots of trees and buildings for shade. Nice benches and chairs for comfortable seating while you’re there. Dog owners are very good about making sure their pets are well behaved. They play with other dogs and generally have a great time. Plastic bags are provided so you can clean up after your dog. Pet owners can spend time talking with other owners and enjoying the park too. Very nice place to take your dog for exercise and play time.
