Bixby Dog Park — Attraction in Long Beach

Dog Park rocks! What a treat-for Pet Owners! A Dog Park located on the North-West corner of Bixby Park, major cross streets of Cherry Ave & Broadway, overlooking the beach accessible by vehicles with reasonable parking, Long Beach Transit Busses; walkers & joggers and skate boarders & electric scooters. It's one of the many amenities that makes Long Beach California a world class city that embraces its demographics & diversity. I say this because this is not just a courtesy attempt at providing a dirt lot & hanging a sign calling it a Dog Park. We're talking prime beach side property that is built up with 2 fenced in sections- one side for big dogs & one side for small dogs. The entrance has a double security gate- entry gate opens to a small gated enclosure then secondary gate opens to the dig size section you choose. It's handy to minimize risk of "Who Let the Dogs Out...Woof, woof woof", the song you know. Anyways, doggie bags are provided for cleanup, water fountains that are Dog friendly. The grounds have a forest outdoor feel with wood & bark chips, small hills, trees and plenty of room to run and play. Theres bench & tree log sitting so you csn just let your pet play and talk to other pet owners. The Dog Park is a great addition to your calendar especially if you're single, need an activity to get you out the house or just to enjoy the best weather around. I'm happy because I took on a 6 month year old dog awhile ago and now is turning 1 year old and having a dog Park makes the lifestyle (that what it becomes having a pet) of being a Pet Owner a bit easier. So just wanted to share how something that may appear insignificant to someone whizzing by who is not Pet Owner or the uninformed general public; that these locations like a Dog Park or whatever spots that LB Parks & Recreation creates are treasures no matter how far off the beaten path. Maybe I'll see you here with your dogs. Pictures of my dog and mysekf- I didn't want to post pics of others as respecting privacy, the close vicinity would show identifiable...

This dog park is disappointing. There isn't grassy areas in the dog park itself. It's just wood chips and not well maintained. There was trash in the enclosure, and the other dog owners don't watch their dogs very closely. I went about 11am on a weekday and didn't stay more than 15 minutes because one french bulldog was acting slightly aggressively towards the other dogs. Meanwhile, the owner sat on the bench on her phone the entire time. It's the only dog park in walking distance, so I will likely be back. But I will be calling more owners out on their dogs' poor behavior and etiquette. Train your...
