    I love this park. It is spacious and clean. I like that the small dog park is as big as the big dog dog park. There's plenty of shade. The humans also have somewhere where they can sit while their fur babies play. There's water fountains for the dogs. There's dog wash off areas so your dog doesn't get in your car dirty. You can't use soap though. Parking is on site but very limited. You can find some street parking. There's also trails where you can take your dog for a walk or just you for a walk. I went early, but I do hear they are strict with their 8pm closing time.

    Park closed until Sat June 28th 8am.

    Gentleman approached me to inform me about the maintenance they are doing to the facility. From what I could see the park looks well maintained and groomed.

    First time here for us and we love it it. Saturday morning and it's pretty packed with doggies and humans. My Maya had fun and made a few new friends and of course met up with old friends too. This place had a nice spacious area so that if you wanted to stay away from certain doggies you could but everybody was so friendly. Construction on the highway was the only reason I would hesitate to drive here again other then that I would definitely make the trip.

    What I love about this park is how spacious it is. There's plenty of space for the dogs to spread out, because my dog has been attacked before I find it easy for me to take him to the corners of this park to keep him separate if necessary. The turf in the front is a nice touch. I love the surrounding trails too.

    Excellent dog park with lots of space. There is a large dog and a small dog area. There's tunnels and boxes for the dogs and benches for you. So much for your dog to do. There are two entrances so if the first lot is full you can go down the road a bit. There's even a place to rinse your dog off in case they go crazy and get dirty. The parking lot is a bit small but there's parking across the street and along the dirty road.

    We have taken our dogs here a few times already. There are tons of shaded areas and plenty of open space for your fur babies to run off their energy! They even have a dog washing area. I'm so glad we have a dog park so close to home now. There are two fenced in areas, one for large dogs and on for the little ones.

    Great off the leash park. Archie loves running around and getting to meet new friends. Small dog park and large dog park are separate.

    I really like this dog park- there's plenty of parking and there's shade. However, I really wish…read morethat the small dog area was larger and had more additions like the large dog side. I have a corgi, so for safety reasons I keep him in the small dog area unless theres just a few big dogs that keep to themselves. I've seen too many big dogs get into scuffles or go after other dogs. If you've got a big dog this is an excellent place to take them because there's picnic tables, agility equipment, a walking track, and water fountains for your dog! The small dog side is still a decent size, and does have a bench with some shade. I still bring my dog here if I'm in the area because he loves to run up and down the fence with the bigger dogs. Plus, there's always the trails to enjoy as well.

    Sharing this as a PSA:…read more I frequently take my dogs here and they always have a great time playing with other dogs. They are bigger dogs and enjoy playing rough with each other but are not aggressive dogs and understand the boundaries of other dogs. Today I took the dogs to the park and this couple came in with their dogs and my dogs tried to play with their dog but it was nervous. The couple immediately urged me to get my dogs, which I understood since their dog was nervous. The husband then tried to kick my dog multiple times and then went after my dog WITH HIS GUN, as he's screaming and getting aggressive with me. My dogs were never aggressive with his dog and they were away from his dog as he still went after my dogs, with his gun. Fearing my own and my dogs safety we immediately left. Another person who witnessed it shared with me that their dog was shot and killed by someone at the park before. Of course I can't say whether it was the same person who I encountered but I'm sharing this to warn everyone to proceed with caution

    I've been going to this park since I moved to the neighborhood in 2019. Took my pup on the big dog…read moreside to walk trails and small dog side to play fetch. Shes a medium dog about 20 lbs. We were very frequent visitors. We had a downfall in 2021 and now shes a senior, blind and a T1 diabetic and bumps into everything. but fetch is her life so we kept going to the park and I would bring her favorite scented squeak toy so she could hear when I throw it and smell it to find it. But our visits started to become complicated when dogs would just run her over or run away with her ball leaving her frantic because she couldn't see was going on. I often times had to get her ball back from the dog and walk to another empty part of the park and toss her ball to her so she could play and get her exercise. This wouldnt stop the dogs from constantly stealing her toys and running away and the owners just laughing at me. And I would explain my dog is blind and needs her ball so she can hear and smell it to play. They would say "it's just what dogs do" which irritated me. Since I kept moving to empty parts of the park and they would just follow. Theres thousands of balls there and hers is a scented squeaker made for blind dogs. So I picked her up and left. I started taking her early mornings when no one is there and that worked for a while. On may 8th we finished our walk and a lady came in with her 2 dogs, no big deal I was snapping my fingers at my pup so she could follow me back to the car. One of the lady's dogs ran over which I thought was just going to say hello, pinned my dog down and started chomping on her. I quickly reacted and grabbed the dog off my dog and picked up my dog and ran her to the fountain to check for wounds. She had a bad puncture in her back that required 3 staples. It was a horrific day. I won't be going back here anymore. I wish they had dog parks made for disabled and older dogs. Its frustrating trying to find an area that's gated where she can run and explore and not get bullied or completely run over by other dogs. We just take little walks around my complex now and play fetch inside my apartment.

    Located right off of Pat Booker Road, right next door to the Universal City Animal Shelter…read more This park is split in half, one side for the big dogs and the other side for 35Lbs and under. The entrance gate is a double gate for those of you with escape artists. Park has running water available for the dogs, and picnic tables shaded by large canopies. The only thing keeping this to 4 stars is the lack of grass. Yes, there is some grass in the park, but it's mostly dirt. The city has plans to plant grass and make other improvements, but they still need donations. Check the gate coming in for info on donating.

    I have a 20-pound Frenchie that thinks he's a Great Dane, Diesel. He gets along fine in the big…read moredogs area, which is really the only area used by 90% of folks for dogs big and small alike. Diesel loves Bark Park and perks up when he realizes where we're headed. In dozens upon dozens of visits, he's been humped a handful of times and subjected to a little rough play, but very rarely to the point where I felt it was unsafe. Bark Park is a pretty typical dog park in this respect, maybe a bit less aggressive than others I've visited. The regulars here are pretty diverse and super friendly. I'm kinda introverted by nature and have a good sense of stranger danger, but I get drawn into a lot of conversations, mostly because Diesel is an enthusiastic idiot who somehow runs at normal dog speed despite his small stature. Regarding the parking, yes, there is a lot at the far side of the dog park, and yes, you have to traverse a four-foot-wide path with your back to the traffic whizzing by at all of 15 MPH if you choose to park in this lot. Closer spots are sometimes available, but when filled, I mostly default to the baseball field parking lot across the street. The biggest logistical problem here is poor drainage. There is a small wading pool that often gets filled and ends up with stagnant, dirty water, which Diesel seems to gravitate to after he gets winded. In general, the water situation at Bark Park is not optimal...fountains work poorly, and drainage is bad throughout. There are a few water jugs sprinkled about in an attempt to mitigate the issue, and provide fresh water for pups. The amount of shade could be better. If it's midday during the summer, I'll drive to Phil Hardberger as the foliage there really helps keep the temperatures a little more reasonable. Bark Park installed a gazebo last year, which helps with some shade if you are sedentary, but I like to walk laps because otherwise Diesel loses his mind. The trees at the park seem to be underwatered; a large portion of them have been cut back or cut down, and not a lot of foliage has grown back in. The issues are minor enough that 95% of the time, I'll prefer the five-minute drive to Bark Park over a fifteen-minute trek to Harbender. Diesel has enough fun that we've been frequenting it with some sort of regularity for a few years now.
