Appears that someone keeps place clear of feces bcz other dog parks I feel obligated to pick up some poo bcz there's so much & I don't want them to close the park... friendly people and positive interactions with me dog and other canines. Well paced dog bags with trash receptacles. Two entire different dog areas in separate fences to give two different vibes. More trees in one area & other area more open.

Nice dog park & gives variety to the dog parks we already have. It could use another poo station in at least 2 more areas. I believe this is why there are more piles of poo that people have left. I tie bags along the fence to discourage. I also pick up an extra pile to help out. There is no plowing on the playground in the winter which is good since it gives me better exercise. I like the location. I will definitely be back.
