Don't go much anymore with the new dog, he's quite unruly and not so well behaved, except to my dad. We would go on the weekends mostly. My parent's dog, Tucker was super easy going and got on with most dogs, so this was a great place for him to run around and sniff out new friends, literally and run around and burn off energy. He loved the winters here or anywhere, best. This is a nice dog park, they have a fountain for the dog water and even have a gazebo for them to get some shade for a spell too. A very open space for dogs to run and play, a most favorite spot for parent's dog. The new dog likes it as much, but he doesn't get on as well with dogs as the last.

If I had only read the Yelp review before I stopped by, I would have known that I wasn't going to be allowed in the dog park, but I didn't (sigh), and so I swung by there with the canine, and was crestfallen when I realized I made the trip for nothing. My salvation came when a kind resident who was there took pity on us, and used his electronic fob to let us in. Although, maybe his motives were not completely altruistic - I think he saw a potential playmate for his dog in the bargain. Which was a pretty good assumption. He told me he wasn't supposed to let me in, and he'd get in trouble if someone found out, so I appreciate that. It's a great little dog park, but that is moot unless you have access, and so, I can't go for a repeat visit. It was just blind dumb luck someone let me in, and I'm certain even he wouldn't have done that except for the fact that no one else was there at the time. C'est la vie!

Rolling hills dotted with trees make it fun to play hide and seek (they can't see you over the hill). Plenty of picnic benches, some even with covered shade in the summer. Poop bags available. The gate mechanism is clever, better than other dog parks; gate can swing inward or outward. Trees line the edges and you can go on a mini stroll into the woods and reach the other side where there is a little dog pier for swimming. Open only in the summer months. You can buy a daily parking permit or an annual pass. If you forget or didn't know, as we did the first time, they leave you a gentle reminder sticker on your windshield. Restrooms on premises. Easy, plentiful parking. Friendly folks. There are dogs of all sizes and so far all of them have been very friendly.

Also, my dog escaped once because someone didn't close both doors. So, like any dog park, or place in public really, the real menace is people messing things up.

First and foremost, something IMPORTANT - if you click on, "Get directions" while in the Yelp…read moreapplication, you will be sent to the wrong place by Google. I'm assuming someone must have done the "find my location" drill originally when determining the location, and the GPS satellite was a little off that day, because if you follow the directions given on your phone, you're going to end up someplace else besides the park. Where will you end up, exactly? You will end up in the middle of Interstate 94, about half a mile away from the dog park, and you will be going around 70 mph when your GPS announces, "You have arrived at your destination". I've done it twice with the same result, in the same spot on I-94. Put in "Statler-Maloof Dog Park, St. Clair Shores" in your GPS, or, if it can't find that, put in "Brys Park, St. Clair Shores" in your GPS (the dog park is within the boundaries of the larger Brys Park), and that should get you to the right place. It's pretty close to where Harper and 8-Mile Road intersect. That housekeeping item aside, this is a great dog park. Additionally, it's open to BOTH residents and non-residents of St. Clair Shores alike. But, don't even bother going there until you complete the application process first, because you and Taffy/Killer/Spot/Duke/Coco/Diablo/Zoe/Bear, etc., won't be getting in without the electronic passkey (it's a key fob, in this instance) that you get after you get through the membership application. You can get an application at the dog park, online, or, have one mailed to you if you call up the department that handles it at City Hall. Yes, it's a pain to fill out the application, get all the dog's paperwork, and then take those things to the St. Clair Shores City Hall, where, if everything's in order, and you give them some money, they conditionally approve you as a member. It's conditional because you also must return later for an "Etiquette" class (not the dog, just you), and then, and only then, your electronic key fob is activated, and you and your canine quadruped can get through the gates, and use the park. You know something? It is totally worth it. Good people there, good dogs there, it's all so very copasetic. Definitely recommend!

We didn't have a fenced in yard and my pup just needed somewhere to run. City requirements made me so much more comfortable with the other dogs in the park, knowing that they were also vaccinated and registered. The secured entry ensures that not just any dog off the street can wander in. The other dog owners are friendly and responsible. Everyone keeps a close eye on their pet to ensure that play doesn't get too rough and poo is picked up. If someone misses their dog pooing, other folks will either help find the 'land mine' or often pick it up for them. There are multiple water bowls and a faucet with fresh water to fill them up at (which owners take turns doing regularly). There are two separate play spaces, one that's ~four acres and another that's for small dogs under 22lbs. The facility contains several benches and waste receptacles with free dog waste bags. The many "regulars" at this park form an awesome community. Everyone chips in to keep the park in tip top shape, owners know almost all of the others dogs' names, watch out for each other's pets and share both funny stories and useful info that can only come from another dog lover. There's even a playground outside of the park for the kiddos - dog park outings are fun and active for our whole family!
