Dodge City Dog Park in Dodge City, Kansas

Experience one of the friendliest and most convenient places for your canine companion at Dodge City Dog Park in Dodge City, KS. This spacious, properly fenced dog park stands out in Western Kansas, offering a welcoming community, easy wheelchair accessibility, and room for energetic dogs to run, play, and socialize. With picnic tables, a doggie waste station, and direct connections to the nearby city park, local zoo, and pet-friendly trails by the Arkansas River bed, there’s plenty for both pets and owners to enjoy.

Amenities include multiple entrances, clear posted rules, a waste bin, doggy poop bags (although they can run out), and a drinking fountain (note that it may not always be operational). While the park is generally well-maintained and clean, visitors should bring extra water during hot months or if the fountain is out of service.
