There are both large and small dog parks that are protected by not one, but two fences are available. (+2 stars) Beware! Poop bags and trash cans are all outside of the fenced area. I don't like holding my dogs poop all day, and I don't like leaving my dog unattended in a dog park. (-1 star) The large dog park is a decent size, and obviously, my dog went to the furthest corner from the gate to take his morning poop before he hit the fence line to make his new claim under the Peestead Act of 1862. This activity occupied him for some time. (+1 star) Fortunately for me, I took my dog there at 9:30 on a Monday morning while everyone else was being productive at work. Needless to say, the park was empty, and my dog was occupied surveying his new kingdom; when he finally looked up to find me, I was off trekking back to the parking lot to toss his poop in the only trash receptacle in sight. As I looked over the fences back at my dog, who had frozen in a thousand yard stare at me, I could see in his eyes that I abandoned him in a strange wasteland for dead, and surely he was forsaken. As I walked back through the gate, my dog instantly became a world-class explorer once again, fearlessly sniffing the double fence line. (+1 star)

This is a large Lucious park with something for everyone. They have a AWESOME large dog 🐶 park here for all kinds of dogs. The ducks and geese make this place home 365 days a year as they have lots of water here. The playground equipment is nice and there is a lot of it. They have a very nice splash 💦 pad here to cool off. They have volleyball and soccer held here as well. The grounds are well maintained for the grass, trees 🌲 and shrubs.

One of the best parks in the Greenbelt, such a good example of a city park done right and another reason to love Boise. Well maintained and fun to explore, especially nice at sunset and the river surfing waves are too cool!

I've been bringing my dog Gaia to Idaho dog park for the last 2 years, usually at least 1x a week. It has been so good for her and I!! She loves going! And the staff is just incredible with her!! She comes home tired and its perfect! I have also used Idaho dog park to board her as well and I feel comfortable and relaxed knowing she's well taken care of.
