Reviews
Great Dog Park – friendly owners and dogs. Park has three sections. Large and small dog areas each have a small pool and toys available. Reasonable annual membership fee, so worth it for the included parking and peace of mind knowing all dogs have their vaccines. Love the Staff!
I have three dogs that love this park. The fee for the first dog was NULL, and each additional dog is NULL(NULL). So for me it’s about NULL per month. With one dog that’s about NULL a month! A bargain for what you get.
In a perfect world it would be free, but this place is staffed and they keep it clean, so I don’t mind paying. I mean, this place does not smell like poop!
Perhaps the Barkery could offer an income based sliding scale?
Requiring spayed or neutered dogs cuts down on aggressive behavior, never had an incident.
Requiring up to date shots keeps my pups safe.
I HAVE NEVER STEPPED IN POOP AT CITYWALK BARKERY.
BTW: 5 laps around the fence line is about a mile.

This park is great! It is always clean, mostly shaded, and has plenty of room and things for dogs to play on. My dog especially loves the little pool!

Visited on Fri Mar 29, so glad the dogs and I did. It was a huge treat to them after traveling all day on Thur. I travel alot around the US and never have found a dog park as nice as this one. What a GREAT way the city to use a dead space under the interstate. You do have to have vaccine records with you. (I always do when traveling in case we find things like this). I was charged ? for 2 dogs- totally worth it to me. I liked there were 3 different sectioned off fenced areas with things for dogs to climb on, water bowls, turf, small water area for a dog to lay down and cool off, and all of these areas were VERY CLEAN. I also liked the clean restrooms where I bring my pets in with me. As this is a difficult task doing when solo traveling.
***UPDATE: My dogs and I decided to come back Mar 31. Young male adult was going to charge ? total for 2 dogs. I questioned the amount. As my bank account showed ? total for March 29. I even showed him my bank account. The CityWalk Barkary website only says ? but does not say for each dog. The young Male said “well, maybe the lady didn’t see the other dog.” I said “No.That’s not correct. Because she gave both of them treats, she processed both of their vaccine records and she came out to the fence area and visited with us”. He then asked if I had a hotel key. We are staying in AirBnb and were the day we first arrived. Needless to say, the dogs and I left. I am not going to pay ? to let them play for hour and half time left before closing time.

My pups absolutely love this park! It is a membership park ? daily or ? for a year. You also have to have vaccinations and have your dog(s) fixed. I live in the area and for me it worth it! Sitting areas for the parents while the fur babes tire themselves out!
