Emerson Dog Park is a welcoming community space in Muncie, IN, offering a natural setting for dogs to play and socialize. It features a spacious fenced area suitable for dogs to roam off leash. Visitors appreciate the park for its simple, well-maintained environment that is convenient for local dog owners.
Lovely place. My pittie puppy adores going here and playing with her pup friends. It’s very nice to see mutual dog owners there who are always so friendly.
Really nice dog park that you don’t need to have them on a leash. It has water and the parks department keeps it mowed. Humane society provides bags to pick up after your dog
This dog park is large with plenty of room for your dog to run and play. The area is fenced and previously required membership, but for the last year or so the area has not been locked and is basically open to the public. On nice days around 4-5:30pm there are generally 25 dogs here. During the summer moths there is a working doggy water fountian. There is a large group of regulars that are nice to talk to as well.
The only downsides to this park is that durning the winter it can get muddy, and during dry summer days it can get dusty.
This is the best dog park around this area. There are some people who go with dogs that aren’t the best behaved though. Thankfully that tends to be few and far between. The dog agility equipment is alright. I do wish there was an actual course for dogs to run though though. The grounds are pretty well maintained and safe for pets to play on. Definitely bring some doggy waste bags along though. They do have dispensers. But only one in each area of the park. In the big dog side and the little dog side.
Used to love this park.. however people have started using it as a way to temperament test their dogs the lazy and dangerous way. My dog was attacked and instead of support or help I was shamed by a shelter worker for bringing my dog to a “dirty dog park.” She continued with unhelpful remarks and told me how run down/ dangerous this park is. I’d never return again considering the people who are in charge of maintaining this park speak of it in this way and couldn’t care less what goes on here! If you’re wondering this person faced no consequences for their irresponsible behavior for their dog attacking mine from the back UNPROVOKED!
