HDOG is working towards the establishment of a cohesive dog owners group, consisting of people who…read moreare willing to spend time and donate money towards the establishment of our proposed area. This group will be responsible for educational efforts towards dog owners using the area, and will help with operations and maintenance once the area is established. The group will maintain ongoing communications with the Parks and Recreation Department personnel, and will act as a liaison to area park users. A four-member advisory panel has been established. Its members are volunteers from the dog park community, and its purpose is to facilitate the flow of information between the park users and the Parks department and to assist with occasional special projects. In addition to being the catalyst for Hollister's first dog park, HDOG will also advocate responsible dog ownership as we believe that the two work hand-in-hand.

The dog park itself is great. Cleaned often, well maintained, and large…read more There is a fun crew of dogs and owners that come on the weekday evenings. We try to pop in once a week. Unfortunately this dog park has a disproportionate number of inconsiderate owners compared to other parks in the Monterey Bay. Many unfixed, unvaccinated, untrained, and aggressive dogs that will attack or hump your dog repeatedly. I came with a friend last summer and both our dogs picked up a respiratory/eye infection. Because of this, you'll often find people walk their dogs on the track instead of using the dog park. I usually do this unless I recognize the dogs at the park.

I've been going to this park with my German Shepherds for about a month now. I've never had any…read moreissues with aggressive dogs in other parks like Gilroy or Morgan Hill. There is a large portion of dogs in this park which are not spayed or neutered. For the last week I've had nothing but trouble with other dogs attacking my dogs. Today I had a person upon my arrival warn me that their female was not friendly with other females. If you have to warn someone about your dog then you don't belong in a dog park. Sure enough the dog attacked one of my dogs. If your dog isn't fixed it is not a good idea to bring them to a dog park. The chances of altercations increase. I won't be going back to this park any longer. I'll drive the extra time to go to Gilroy which has a much better quality of non-aggressive dogs.

For a county park this is a good, single section, "all dog" park. It has a good double gate, water, bags for dog cleanup, and a trash can. Parking is good, and the location is away from the main roads which is always a plus. It has one big tree for shade, and a child's playground nearby. The tractor gate (single gate that is extra wide for tractors) is locked (as it should be). Bathrooms are nearby, and scenery is fantastic. The local Spreckles Boy Scouts did a great job! We visited on 3 April 2024, a quiet Wednesday afternoon. Others were here before we popped in. Will come here again.

They send pictures daily with cute comments (Charlie is enjoying hanging out with his knew friends. Then pics with 4 doggies). If dogs smile he seems to be doing. Also, they offer pet grooming, at very reasonable prices. So, Charlie was bathed and had his nails trimmed when we picked him up. Also worth mentioning is that when we now drop him he is excited to go. Charlie is in the middle (group) absolutely back. Look how happy they all are.

He passed his temperament test with flying colors, but because he's a shy boy and missed me after our 5 hour drive, he didn't eat or play much. That was purely on him missing home, and it had nothing to do with the facility! They offer breakfast, lunch, and dinner, keep all the dogs well hydrated, and genuinely care for every pet there. They sent me photo updates throughout his stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. I could tell he was in the absolute best hands. I highly recommend them to anyone needing daycare or boarding. They truly love what they do and take incredible care of the pups. Thank you for taking such good care of my sweet boy!

Love this park- there's a lot of grass to walk your dog in/around and the separation for big and…read moresmall dogs is much appreciated. Only thing is there is a LOT of bird poop in the nearby grass so be careful if your dog likes to roll around. There are also a lot of gophers here, which the dogs often fixate on so be aware so that your dog doesn't get bitten or scratched! This dog park is a little less lively compared to some parks up north, so sometimes we just stay for a short while. This dog park definitely has a small town feel to it- it seems like most of the community members here know each other, and they are usually friendly and inclusive. Interesting note though- on a couple occasions, I've talked with dog owners who suddenly get into politics unprompted and I found that to be a bit awkward lol Most people are good about watching their dogs here and picking up after them, and it seems generally well-maintained.

Had they not been there, this trip would have been pathetic. There is just old gravely dirt and no sign of grass for miles. Not that it has to have an apparatus for the dogs to play in, on, or under, but that would be nice. If you're in the area, there's a dog park in Morgan Hill on Edmunson that has grass.

I went today to the Gilroy, CA dog park for the first time. No one was there so I can't give it any…read moremore than 3 stars because half the experience is the people and dogs who go there. Due to that, I will just tell you what you need to know about layout. The Gilroy Dog Park is located in a nice city park with plenty of parking, bathrooms, & picnic tables in the park. I *loved* the multiple signs pointing the way to the dog park! The park appears to be maintained. In the dog park there is: A section for "small dogs" & a section for "large dogs" (not the typical small & ALL sections I am used to). Small dogs can go into the large area *at owners risk* (typical of my other dog parks). Note: I have a "small" dog but almost always go into the "all" dog sections of dog parks. The dog park has lots of trash cans, doggie poop bags in dispensers posted in many locations, shade, benches, fresh water in both sections, "push bar" gates, 4 foot fences and a bulletin board. The ground appears to be dirt but it might be "decomposed granite" that needs to be refreshed (see photos). My only complaint was that the water drain on the "big dog section" was clogged and backed up, I am currently asking around for who to contact to fix it. Today, 18 July 2012, it was only 84 degrees at 12 noon. Hopefully this is not the lamest review I have ever given for a dog park.....but I did want to 1.) add this dog park in Yelp (check), 2.) tell ya'll what you should know (check) and post multiple *good* photos (check). If I go back, if my dog gets to play with others I would be happy to give the place more stars. I am *not* from Gilroy nor do I go to Gilroy often, but my 2 year old dog has gone to more than 30 dog parks and I have something to offer in that department.
