This swim park is so much fun for the pups. It’s fenced in for safety. The water level does drop significantly during droughts and it’s best to play in the grassy areas that are also fenced if the water level is low.

Moved from Florida and needed place for pup to run into water… perfect location plus place to hose dog off after swim at restrooms was bonus!

The dog park itself is great. Ours dogs have been there several times and they’ve loved it. Yesterday, my daughter took Luna there to play. Luna was having a great time until another dog attacked her. The dog grabbed Luna on the back of her neck and started dragging her. She ended up with two puncture wounds on the back of her neck. It would have been worse but her harness saved her from more serious bites. The owners of the other dog took off while my, daughter, in hysterics, tried to attend to Luna. I’d like to thank all the other owners there that looked at Luna’s wounds and comforted my daughter until my wife and I could get there. I know accidents can happen. But to leave after your dog attacks another without staying to see if everything’s alright is unacceptable. We took Luna to an emergency vet who treated her wounds and gave her antibiotics.

This is a wonderful dog park. My dog especially loved the water park. Well done.
I just wanted to add a photo that I thought was funny. This was inside the dog park and is probably a first aid kit. Whomever put the flag up probably thought it was the American Red Cross but in actuality it is the flag of the Country of Switzerland 😂😂😂🇨🇭🇨🇭🇨🇭
