🐾 How to Handle Aggressive Dogs at the Dog Park – Real Advice from Dog Owners
Visiting the dog park can be a joyful activity for both you and your furry friend—but aggressive encounters can quickly […]
If you’re seeking a fantastic spot for your pup to play, Randolph Dog Park in Randolph, Massachusetts, is a spacious and welcoming destination for dog owners. This well-kept park features large fenced areas nestled in a wooded setting, ensuring plenty of natural shade and an engaging environment for dogs and their humans. The park is known for its pet-friendly hiking trails, making it a perfect stop for both exercise and play—whether you have a high-energy lab mix or a more timid pup.
The park is equipped with amenities that cater to both dogs and owners. There are two separate enclosures, including a dedicated small dog/puppy area for those who prefer a more controlled and safe environment for their little furry friends. Randolph Dog Park offers agility features like tunnels, tire obstacles, and boulders to climb, along with numerous seating areas and shaded spots beneath mature trees. Water is provided for thirsty pups, and waste bags are available if you forget your own. The paved paths and wheelchair-accessible parking make the park easy to navigate for all visitors.
We ventured from Milton to take our 2 year old 50lb lab mix to the Randolph Dog Park. She loved it. It is a great big area set back down into the woods. Tunnels, fire hydrants, trees and today, respectful dog owners.
She was a bit scared/nervous upon entering because the dogs, understandably, get excited and all wanted to greet her and jump on her. It lasted a couple minutes and the owners g head come over quickly to get their dogs. Very respectful dog owners. She then took her time wandering and getting to know each dog individually and she was a happy camper!
It was snowy, but no ice. The path is paved but there is a short distance where you do have to trudge through snow and the dog park has lots of snow. I would recommend boots. There was water for the dogs to drink and plenty of bags for poop collection if you forget yours at home.
I would highly recommend!
Great place clean. Fenced in double entrence with fence. Lots of places to sit and let dogs run around. If you love dogs and want to be popular bring some treats
Great big place. Well kept year round. Friendly dogs. Has a nice hiking road great to bring dogs, kids and family.
Small dog owners beware: We brought our small dog here a few years ago. He got bit in the leg by a larger dog and never walked the same again. I’ll say either don’t bring small dogs here or immediately leave if they get targeted by a bigger dog. The owner of the big dog wouldn’t care and would say they’re just playing and then stand all the way at the other end of the park to watch.
Best Dog Park Around!
There are 2 separate enclosures; the main dog park and a puppy park (smaller version of the main park). Both are well maintained throughout the season.
The park is a great size, plenty of space to run and play in a natural environment— no artificial turf or rubber. There are a few giant concrete tunnels the dogs can run through, a tire obstacle, and large boulders to jump off.
Plus a ton of trees providing overhead coverage from the elements.
An overall great place; filled with a great group of people and friendly dogs.
