I just relocated here with a 6 month old Aussie and will continue to bring him here for playtime and socialization. The folks are friendly and welcoming. The park is clean – waste bags are donated by the pet owners so there’s always a stockpile, and people are helpful in watching after the dogs when they’ve done their “duty” and keeping the park clean. We arrived during the summer heat and someone donated a splash pool and there is a spray hose to help fill it up, fill water bowls, or hose down your muddy/sandy dog before leaving. My dog especially appreciates the splash pool as you can catch him lounging in it every 15 mins. Just don’t forget to bring some towels. There are restrooms available which I’ve not seen often at dog parks. As for friendliness of the dogs, there’s one or two who have caused some trepidation, but no actual fights have occurred and the owners are quick to step in and deescalate any tense situations. My dog hasn’t shown any fear of returning and is dragging me toward the fence when we arrive. I’ve been impressed with this one and intend to make us one of the regulars while we’re here.
There is plenty of parking available around the dog park. It is located behind the local police department so it feels safe.
The park is split up into two sections. One for small dogs and one for large dogs. Both sections are fairly large and is plenty of space for the dogs to run around. Each time I went there have only been a couple dogs there.
They have a server there, Lydia, that went way out of her way to get My dog Ben back to me
Thanks for your compassion
Coming along nicely. There’s a gated area for leashing and unleashing your pet. It would be nice to have one of those pet waste bag dispensers with a waste basket. My dog had fun. We will go back. Plenty of parking.
This is probably the best dog park I’ve ever been to 😆 from Missouri and we have k bar but this one has some charm. Plenty of space in both sections, clean facilities, nice human bathrooms, everyone is so kind too. Free!
*wear pants and maybe some bug spray 😬 when the sun started going down the gnats were biting baaaaaad
