I've been traveling cross country and people don't realize how precious good dog parks are. This has a separation for small and large dogs, water, balls and a bath tub. And a parking lot right next to it. Wonderful! read more

I love coming to Tom Brown Dog Park. It is so relaxing to see all of the dogs, running around and playing together. It is a great place to meet new people. read more

You have to take several turns within the park to get the the dog park section, but it is well worth the side trip. Large dog park with a section for small dogs. Three plastic pools, 2 hoses, one outside so you can rinse your dog before leaving. A TON of shade!! 6 benches and a few picnic tables. It was a perfect 40 minute break for me and the dogs on our road trip from Austin, TX to Tampa, FL. Bonus....met some really nice people ... a regular whose dog is named Traveler had some of the best dog stories I have ever heard! If you see him....tall to him. Hes alittle reserved at first but such an interesting person to talk to!!! Safe travels. read more

Awesome little dog park. To be honest, I think I liked it more before the changes but it's still a great place to take your furry friend. I wish they would rethink the small dog area. The old area had more shade and a lot more grass for play. Now there is just one tree and one picnic bench. Hopefully they read this and put in one of the shaded tables like the old one had. Or make the left most dog park the small dog park. Way more shade, tress and grass! read more

This is a great huge dog park! They have 2 separated areas for both big and small dogs. Come prepared with a towel for the car ride home because there is mud! They also have a convenient hose outside of the fence and water stations. Very nice, outdoor park area with benches to sit! And lots of dogs!! read more

Why is this the best dog park in Tallahassee? 1. My pup loves it. Who am I to argue with her? 2. Well-tended areas for small and large dogs, equipped with water buckets, pup pools, tennis balls, and seating. The small dog area only has one tree, so shade is sparse at certain times of the day. Go on a weekend morning. 3. Friendly and attentive owners, most of whom pick up after their pups. Some, however, are all too often entranced by their glowing, handheld rectangles. (Why bring your pup if you don't plan to watch them get all goofy?) read more

The most aggressive dogs I have seen in a dog park. 3 or 4 fights broke out inside of 10 minutes, but the instigators still stayed, going after more dogs. We gave up and left rather than wait for one of the incidents to include us. It's a shame when owners take aggressive dogs and let them wreak havoc. The signs always say not to bring them but no enforcement. Wag more, bark less, bite never. read more

When I'm in a lazy mood, I enjoy taking my dogs to the Small Dog Park at Tom Brown Park. It's kept really clean, has lots of chairs to sit and relax, plus a picnic table. I enjoy talking with the people I meet there. I like watching how the small dogs play--without all the drama of the Big Dog Park. read more

Wow, I am seriously impressed with this park! Nestled within the huge Tom Brown Park, there is a side for large dogs and another for small dogs. I really like that the layout is wide open with shady and open spaces. I think there were 30+ dogs on the sunny Saturday morning when I went out. Best of all, there's a hose so you can wash Fido down after he rolls in the mud! read more

Perhaps one of a few fenced in dog parks in the area, the Tom Brown dog park is a large open space. What is unique is that they have two dog parks. One is for small dogs and the other for larger dogs. This ensures that all sizes of dogs can enjoy their play time. Unfortunately, the park is not maintained. Grass is never trimmed, and whatever debris blows in there stays in there. Furthermore, there are several craters that make for difficult terrain. Lastly, half of the park is just an amalgamation of mud, sand, clay, and stones. read more

Great space to let your dog run free, however, some owners do not pick up after their pets so walking is a chore. Also, there is no way of knowing whether the other dogs have all their shots or are fixed (and I personally had to get a dog off my female puppy a week before she got fixed so not fun). As with all shared spaces I guess, there's problems with people who don't participate in a level of etiquette that would make this dog park beautiful, and the maintenance seems to be lacking. Your dog will have fun, but you'll definitely need to have a grooming appointment lined up for after. read more

The area for small dogs is really tiny with very limited shade. The grass is also very worn so it's mostly a dirt park. The area for big dogs has a lot more shade and picnic tables and overall looks to be the better of the two sides. The park is very busy. It's also at the back of Tom Brown Park and not very clear to get to if you've never been here before. read more

Love this park. It's got plenty of room for the dogs to run, and lots of water bowls to keep them hydrated and happy. Also, there are always plenty of tennis balls to choose from. My only gripe is that the dog poo-bags seem to run out quickly, and they aren't refilled all the time, resulting in lots of smelly piles in the park. read more

This park is trashy and all dirt. Very little shade except at the perimeter of the park. No place for the dogs to get in any water. If you want to have a hot, dirty dog with little enjoyment come here. read more

Pretty good space for dogs to run, but it is dirty and smells bad because people do not pick up after their dogs. Also, there is no regulation so there is no way to tell whether pets are healthy/vaccinated. I would, therefore, not recommend bringing a dog that is not protected. And, when it rains, there can be standing water and mud. read more

Great to let your dog run while socializing with the other "parents" or relaxing under the trees. The Tom Brown Dog Park offers tons of space for both large and small dogs to run and burn off some of that energy. With two fenced in areas for either large or small dogs, it accommodates any breed. Although the ground can be either dry or muddy depending on the time of year, usually it stays fairly green. The park also offers a pool for the dogs to play in, a shower to clean them off outside after a said lounge in the pool, and seating on benches under the trees. I would recommend this dog park to anyone! read more

This dog park is awesome! I stopped here with my mom and her two 20-30lb dogs on a road trip. This was the last of several dog parks we stopped at between WI and FL and by far the best one. There were 3 separate fenced in dog areas to divide dogs into weight groups. There were lots of people at the dog park but still plenty of parking (dirt lot) and tables to sit at. One of the fenced areas was really well shaded with plenty of trees, and another one had a kiddy pool for dogs and a water station where you could refill dishes and the pool. Also there were dog poo bags! Really a great park, my only complaint was that we had a semi-hard time finding it having never been there before. read more
