This is my favorite dog park of the options in town. We have also tried Soft Gold Dog Park, Spring Canyon (Horsetooth) Dog Park, Fossil Creek Dog Park, and the dog park near CSU’s Annual Trial Garden. This one is a good size. It is large enough for the dogs to get those crazy zoomie runs in, but not so big that you can’t intervene if there is an incident with another dog. There are very rarely too many dogs for the space. It is often just the right number of dogs. My dog also has many friends there because we are all regulars that come almost daily. We actually moved to the south side of town because we were spending so much of our day just driving to and from Twin Silos Dog Park. Once we turn left at the roundabout, our dog starts going crazy!

There is also a fairly large separate shy/small dog area, and a fountain for filling water bowls and bottles just outside the park (where owners of both shy and large dogs can access it). Many bowls are provided/left in the park for dogs.

Another fun thing to note is there are fantastic sunset views there. There is nothing directly west of the dog park that obstructs the view of the mountains, so it is always a beautiful scene in the evenings. The dirt/finely crushed gravel easily brushes out of my dog’s hair once it dries. After he wrestles for hours at the dog park, I like to just ruffle his hair and then make him shake, sending a big cloud of dirt/dust into the air. Anything else I can easily get with a wire brush that is used for preventing mats, and then wipe away with a wet wipe. Just a little tip!

The only con to this dog park is that there isn’t a light post for the evening dog park goers. I think that is just a matter of writing the city government to petition for a lamp to be installed there. I would like to see how many late night dogs show up when there is actually light!
