Camp Canine: Members Only

Camp Canine is a relatively large outdoor fenced-in dog park with two zones of equal size. My only real complaint is that there is a lack of obstacles or things for the dogs to interact with - essentially just a couple of large fields. It's a great place for dogs to run around, but would benefit from additional interactive architecture.

I love taking Rocky to this park. It is membership only. All you have to do is go the Fort Wayne Parks and Recreation department and show proof that your dog is vaccinated and pay the $40 annual fee ($20 if you do it at the half year point). There are garbage bags you can use to clean up after your pet and the park is really cute. There are benches for you to sit on and there is also a water fountain for the dogs to drink out of.

Love this park and my dog has a blast! He always meets lots of new friends and usually the "parents" chat under the pavilion. The park out south has a few things like a hoop and a ramp to teach your dog a trick. Both parks are enjoyable. One suggestion would beto have a few shade areas scattered for the dogs.

Not as nice as the one out South. Not enough activities but still a cool place for dogs to meet and play. It was clean too and you can walk about with your friend without stepping in a mess.

I’ve been coming for the past year and love it! I’m not sure why everyone is saying it’s so horrible you have to pay for a membership. I feel safer knowing the dogs that are at the park with my puppy are vaccinated and not aggressive. If it weren’t a membership park, any dog could come in and you don’t know if they rabies, etc. There’s been a few incidents of dog bites but you sign a form saying you understand that it could happen. They keep the sidewalks shoveled and usually poop is picked up by the owners. The only thing wrong (and why i marked a star off) is that there is a large hole that dogs love to dig. It took the city a while to come get it filled but the dogs just keep digging at it. I wish they would find a solution to better it since dogs can trip in the hole.
