Downtown Spokane Dog Park

Gate latches are still broken, and no one picks up after their dogs. Small area and the fence is pretty short. Sand/dirt ground, no grass. The only positives is that it is relatively well lit with tree cover, and there are a couple benches. Visited once to check it out, won't be going there again.

So small it is laughable, unless you only had very small dog breeds. While the location serves the downtown pet-owner community, the entrance/exit dual gate system is sub-par. In fact, both gate latches are currently broken, which means neither gate securely shuts. Moreover, the allotted space between the dual gates is much smaller compared to the standard dog park, and doesn’t seem ADA/wheelchair compatible. With the adjacent car traffic, the current entrance/exit gate layout is a major safety hazard for dogs. Furthermore, the metal gate perimeter is short (maybe 3’ tall) and while the aesthetic is “historic city” the gate wasn’t safe for small dogs who could easily fit between the parallel bars—hence smaller wire fencing was added. With two benches, sand ground surface, waste bin, and water fountain for dogs, it has other essential off-leash dog park features.

My dog will only go to the bathroom at this park I works give it a 5 but other dog owners are lazy and irresponsible and don't pick up after their dogs I have spent about 2 hours total picking up after them so my dog doesn't get sick. It does have a drinking fountain for both owners and dogs. It also has a couple of benches to sit on. They are always in the sun though.

Pretty small spot for my big Rotty, do he can't play fetch here. But it's clean and there's water for the dogs. There are a few benches to sit in the sun with beautiful view of the trees.

In our car tour of the Pacific Northwest, I have never seen such a disgusting dog park as the Spokane downtown dog park. In addition to being small, covered with bgravel and smelly, nobody is picking up their poops. I do not recommend anyone use this dog park for their dogs.
