Reviews
your pups can run off leash there’s water as well
This is not a dog park, it is a dog containment area. It’s about the size of three parking spots with zero shade. If your dog is larger than toy size it will not be able to run, let alone walk. However it is Interesting if you put a larger alpha in there, because it will quickly turn into the “octagon”! Probably why they need it so close to the police .
Fantastic dog park for even bigger dogs! It is small, but they certainly can run and enjoy being off-leash. Locals are great to talk to and it is a good part of the community. Thanks for letting us visit!
It is very small. There was a variety of waters to use but only 1 worked. There is a fire hydrant and whether it was intentional or not, had a steady leak. Slow enough that I couldn’t see where it was leaking from but there was a large continuous puddle of water which my girl loved. It was hot and there was no shade trees or any kinda of shadefor dogs visiting
There were no other dogs during this visit but I love that there’s a place to let my little guy be a dog and run around safely. Getting to walk on the nearby bike/walking path is a bonus. There is a single covered picnic table. Don’t recall if there were more up around the paved walking section where the trail is. On other visits there have been dogs large and small to run with. There are two sections when larger dogs aren’t good with the smaller ones.
