Fitchburg Dog Park already an amazing asset to the community!…read moreThe grand opening of the park was phenomenal! Hundreds of dogs together, every different breed and size....playing and having fun! Tails wagging, tongues hanging out....squeaky balls being tossed....and not a single dog fight or hardly even any barking! Amazing. Large dog area (30+) and small dog area (30 and under)....shade pavilion with benches... kids playground nearby for full family fun. Water fountain at front, and water spigot with removable bowls inside each area. Rock features for doggie fun. Great time.

I love this park, and so does/did my dog. As she got older (between 1.5 and 2 years) she became…read moretoo aggressive for the park. It took me a month or so to come to this realization, but the other users suggested I do so without being nasty and small-minded, and I appreciate the caring community that has grown around this space. I am having my dog trained to be less aggressive (and learning to play my own part more effectively). Eventually the trainer (Julie from Working K-9, an amazing boarding and daycare place) will come to the park with us and once she approves my dog's behavior, we'll be back. Almost all of the people who bring dogs to this park are careful and respectful. The nice thing about having two separate areas is that if you run into one of the few owners who permit bad behavior, you don't have to confront him or her ... you can move to the other side. Yelp is about the park (as a "business") -- not about the dogs and owners (the "customers"). X.X's review is a violation of Yelp's Terms of Service. I note that nobody has voted for it, but I think we should do more as a community to support each other. We should not support attacks on an individual in public forums, particularly one of our model citizens: he started the chat group, bring gallons of water every day in winter, picks up everyone else's poop; can describe in detail every interaction his dog has with other dogs, and works constantly to reinforce good behavior in his dog. I have reported X.X.'s report to Yelp as a Terms of Service Violation and hope you will as well. If you know X.X., please ask him or her to edit the personal attacks out of the review, and let me edit those references off this one. Thank you!

There R 2 adjacent sections, 1 pea gravel & 1 grass. Both have a 5' fence, double gates & water…read morefountains for the dogs. Outside the gates R fountains for the humans. The grass side is bigger, ~ 1/2 acre. The feet of some of the larger dogs (30+ lb) seem to be irritated by the gravel. Usually people won't stay after dusk but both R lit, the gravel side w/ more. There R poop bags & trash can in each side but I always bring & use my own bags (they used to run out occasionally). U can drive or walk across the foot bridge from Deerfield St by Sirum Automotive. There's always plenty of parking, unless there's more than one softball game. [There R sometimes 2 at once :( The city needs arrange their timing better] Everyone always gets a spot even if they have to park on the entry road. If It has rained, usually everyone is in the gravel side bk they're worried their dog will get in a mud puddle (not me). There's usually several tennis balls & a pull toy laying around. When dogs come is kind of random. There's usually 3-5 dogs, but I've seen as many as 9 total. My dog & I have been there for up to an hr by ourselves & he doesn't want do anything but wait for others or sniff outside :( As long as it's not SUPER cold (below 30°) or currently raining, there's usually at least a couple there at the more common times (3 pm - dusk).

Very nicely sized. Awesome! Pips were running crazy!! Unfortunately it was only a mere 18°-21° when we went so we were in and out but it was worth it for the pups!!!

This place is an amazing off leash venue in all seasons!…read moreGreat for cooling off in the river in summer. Beautiful place to get outside on trails in the winter. Most dogs are off leash. And the people you meet are usually very nice. There is the occasional kerfuffle with dogs but to be expected. We love it here.

Registration is not required but just asked for safety of all dogs. Lots of structures for agility…read moretraining, and not too busy. There was a lot of space for them to run around. Worth noting there were some foxtails in the mulch so in summer remember to check your dogs paws after. Also, the gate was confusing to open but you press down on the pole. Directions take you on a weird route sometimes.

It looks like a nice park. But it's legit too complicated for a visit. I was dog sitting and they…read morewant a form and shot records filled out then you bring it to town hall to get a tag. Now you can bring your dog to the park. I get the safety, but maybe don't have a dog park.

The new pavilion is impressive--the park group worked to provide a comfortable spot for dog owners while the dogs play. Water is available to the dogs is owners pump it form the available well or they can bring their own. Poop bags are provided but owners make the $$$ of keeping up the park less if they bring their own bags. PROBLEM: CERTAIN OWNERS REFUSE TO PICK UP THEIR DOG'S POOP, LEAVING A MESS FOR OTHER USERS OF THE PARK. NO REQUESTS TO PICK UP YOUR DOG'S POOP HAVE BEEN HONORED. A fabulous place for the whole family, trees, grass, sun, shade, and the playground will be updated eventually The funny thing about the park signs is that they are small/over grown, or too old, and the large one on Kendall Street actually faces across the street, looking into trees and shrubs. No one is going to find that park opening easily :)

This park is hard to find, i was told to look up dufresbe park and park there and then walk down…read more Either way, I think I cam in from Taylor street and even then, it was still a bit of a walk. If you are coming and it's winter with snow in the ground, DO NOT come unless if you are driving a truck with four wheel drive or snow tire. Otherwise you will be stuck and can't get out. The roads are dirt road and they are not plowed. This happened to me as I took a risk driving a sedan in, kind souls at the playground accompanying their kids helped me to dig my car out of the snow. I would never want anyone else to go through my traumatic experience. It's a nice park I think, at least my dog had a blast there. There is a golden doodle that frequents here and he has a ton of energy and is a goof, my dog loved him. There is a picnic table to sit at. I dont recall there being toys there since it was the winter when i was there and the ground was covered with snow. There is only 1 section no small/large dog area.
