Gulf Shores Dog Park’s inviting layout and friendly atmosphere make it a standout option for a dog-friendly outing along the Alabama Gulf Coast.
First time we’ve visited the GS Dog Park, but not the last. Very clean, well maintained, and the most welcoming “regulars!” Pelham enjoyed stretching her legs and getting all the good sniffles, and I enjoyed the friendly company of the other dog moms and dad’s.
New residents to Gulf Shores, we found this dog park on our first day. A great amount of space and shaded areas. Nice seating areas as well! In a very short amount of time, I have met some amazing 2-legged and 4-legged individuals! 🙂 However, I am going to come as early as possible. There is a group of elders who come and act as though they own the park. Pardon my French…Old Biddies. Quite rude and bossy. They were not following park rules and parking where it was clearly notated “No Parking”. Blaming us for holes dug, that our dogs did not dig. I have lived at many beaches, one in particular where elders would meet daily at 10AM with their pups, 20 to 30 at a time. It was always fun, enjoyable, and friendly. I will avoid going during the time these Biddies typically come to this park when I can. Other than that, it is a wonderful dog park and easily accessible. I am so pleased to have found it and have access to it. YAY!
This is a very nice park. There’s a small dog enclosure with a comfortable sitting area for pup parents, and a much larger one that includes two separate seating areas. We’ve never had any issues here—the park is always clean and well-maintained. They provide waste bags, so please be sure to clean up after your pup. Fresh water and bowls are also available. We’ve met some really nice people while Murphy plays. The police station is located right across the street, which adds a sense of security. The only downside is that parking is limited.
We had the pleasure of taking Diesel, a yellow lab, to the dog park frequently while at the Gulf Shores this past month. On our last visit he found a “swimming hole” and became a part yellow/chocolate lab. Chris, an employee there, came to our rescue and made available to us a hose with running water to make it less painful to put him in the car for the ride home. Thanks so much Chris! You went above and beyond!
Such a nice dog park! Two different fenced sections for the dogs to run. Water troughs for dogs to drink from, toys in buckets for them to play with. LOTS of running room and even tennis balls to play with. Trash cans with small poop bags available, PLEASE PICK UP AFTER YOUR DOG’S restroom deeds. Sitting room for the dog owners as well.
