Montrose Dog Park

Dog park

👍👍 My dogs favorite place to run around with all her friends. Perfect on a hot day where they could cool off in the water. Only wish they had better fencing, since my dog likes to escape with a bunch of her friends and run off to the human side.

Jackson Bark

The parking lot was blocked off and the surrounding tennis courts...

Dog. Hotel | Daycare

👍👍 Dog Hotel is the best!!! Our dog, Apollo, loves it here, and is always so excited to come in. I appreciate the flexible day care hours; my husband and I both work weird schedules so it is SO helpful to be able to drop him off early/pick him up late. The staff is very friendly and responsive, and we'...

Pottawattomie Park Dog Friendly Area

Dog park

👍👍 It's real! At first I didn't think so but we walked over and it is. It's sorta hard to get to and not out in the open. Tucked back in the corner.

Edgewater Dog Park

Dog park

👍👍 My doggo loves going off-leash in this dog run! She drags me there every morning now. It's got a nice, complete, high fence with a double gated entrance. It's long enough for her to get a good run in and throw a ball. There are a few trees for sniffing and a community water bowl.
