One of the best dog parks little Muffin ever had the joy of running around and collecting sniffs. All the other dogs present were friendly as well as there human companions.
Letty Towles Dog Park is definitely a great place for socializing your puppy. We went on a Sunday afternoon and there were about 6-8 dogs at any given time. Everyone there seemed really friendly and their dogs were too. You definitely have to keep an eye on your pup in the event there is a skiddish dog. The park is separated into two sections, one for big dogs and one for smaller dogs. I had the pleasure of using the big dog section. There is plenty of room for your dog to run and play fetch. The park is clean and well maintained. There is a sprinkler and baby pools for your pups if it’s too warm. There is water bowls with fresh and clean water. Plenty of shade (pavilion & trees) as well so you’re not completely exposed to the sun. There are sitting areas that are spread apart throughout the park so you aren’t on top of other people. Definitely a must go, if you are a dog parent!
Smokey loves it, he plays with the big dogs. Tons of room to run around, swimming pools and watering bowls are placed around and poop bags are also there. They have two separate areas for dogs under 18″ tall, and an area for dogs over 18″. Shaded area for fur babies mom’s and dads to converse in talking about our babies. I have had hours of wonderful conversations, it’s nice to have a place like this so we can communicate and watch our puppies without fear. And , can you believe it, it’s free!!!
Great place to go! But some people need to realize that if your dog is aggressive towards other animals, they should not be attending this park with others around. I just had a close call with a dog there the other day even after the owner warned me of his dog. He’s dog still managed to go after mine.
I have been coming here for years, but for some reason every time I come now, the park is closed. They used to have it closed Tuesdays and Thursdays. Now it’s Wednesdays and Thursdays. There is never a newsletter that goes about these kind of changes. The park is hardly patrolled and a lot of people have had their dogs fight other dogs that I’ve had to personally get involve and separate. They either need to have a ranger on duties and not just in call, at all times, and keep the park open 7 days a week. It’s entirely pointless to close this park 2 days out of the week if it’s not even being properly watched or maintained.
