What dog owners are saying
Recent review snippets help visitors gauge vibe, upkeep, and who each park suits best.
Yes, there's a Dog Park at this Love's. If your dog is a jumper, it might not be for you. It's only a three foot high chain link fence.
Read more about Dog Park at Love's Travel StopsWe love this dog park. The other dog owners are always friendly and the dogs all get along when we are there.
Read more about Central Bark Dog ParkNice Dog Park. Fencing is secure so no escapes and there is water for the thirsty pooches. It has small and large dog areas with plenty of room for zoomies! My only complaint -- no bags for poop pick-up! And many dog owners didn't bring any because -- there was more poopin' than scoopin' and it was a little messier than I would have liked. They were stinky and had to have a bath as soon as we got home.
