Quann Park — Attraction in Madison

This park is way too big! Owners have no control over their dogs. All you hear are owners continuously calling their dog's name with few dogs returning to their owners. I have taken my dog there 6 times now and 3 times we have a bad experience. The two big ones were, she was attacked by a dog slightly larger than here. The dog was bitting her and my dog was yelping loudly. The owner did nothing but walk away and yell for the dog to come, while my dog hobbled away. Another time my dog was playing with another dog.

Update: super late but the...

I bring my dog to Quann every day. Walking around the outside of the field can get you about 20-30 mins. If you include the little section along the river (my dog likes to chase the ducks so we don’t do this all the time) that adds a few minutes and some nice variability. The park itself is mostly just a field but is big enough that my dog has to check out all of the grass patches which gets him pretty distracted. He loves to chase the birds that will hang out, and this is a great spot to play fetch. The other dogs are also great, I haven’t had one bad interaction! The only downside is that it’s just a field, if there were some trees or meadows or something different it would be better. Also, the location is ideal, especially if you’re anywhere...
