My dog started there as a puppy and she's learned a lot by interacting with other dogs. I'm grateful that people were kind as we worked on training and recall. It's a great space with a good community. The fees go towards insurance costs and maintenance...

Kindof disappointed that this place became a private dog park. I would pay to be a member, but I feel that $100 a year is pretty exorbitant considering the quality and size of the park... In comparison, I went to a free, 13 acre dog park in Colorado that was absolutely the best dog park I've ever been to. Creek and everything! So yeah... not paying $100 for less than an acre dog park. That being said, if I lived like right around the block... I probably would, just out of...
