High Bridge Dog Park

Overall, love this park and the space it provides. There is a ton of area for dogs to spread out, trails for walking, water bowls and poop bags. People are kind and usually chatty if you’re open to it. My gripe is with the dog owners who don’t keep watchful eyes on their pups and leave their poop behind! I’ve stepped in poop multiple times here and it sucks. The park is mostly natural landscape and landscaping bark which makes it hard to see dog poop.

I always love coming to this dog park. There are 3 different sized areas fenced off individually yet still connected, just in case you want to play with your pup alone. The big dog park is huge and fun to play and get to know others. I also love that they built 3 water fountains for the dogs and people in each play area. The only downside is there are no restrooms.

Nice trails with diverse natural, rugged features that provides a wonderful landscape for dogs to explore. The steeper single-track trails are best left for the dogs as they sprint and play. Large fenced-area layout includes: Grassy areas (currently lush green in spring with arrowleaf balsam-root wildflowers) within a mixed conifer forest that is open, yet still shady, and safe enough for dogs exploring off trail; large logs; wood chip covered meadow; large shelter with tables; and garbage can. All the up and downhill exercise is exactly what dogs need, and with the large acreage available here it is silly when people use other parks to illegally let their dog run off-leash. Seriously, the setting at this dog park is similar to Riverside State Park and other undeveloped conservation areas in Spokane and Spokane County. So people who still continue to allow their dogs to run off-leash where it is not allowed, causes safety and sanitary (dog feces) problems for those natural areas that negatively impacts the visitor experience for as other human users and leashed-dogs. There are two smaller fenced areas, each with its own dual-gate entrance/exit, that have shelters. One also has benches and a picnic table under the shelter, while the other small area is still unfinished. There are complimentary mutt bags (for poop pickup). While the smaller areas might be considered for “small dogs only” there is not signage to designate. Someone I met there? Who is a frequent visitor, says that some people will use the small area to gradually accustom their dog to the “off-leash” experience and then move on to the large area. If a dog doesn’t have good recall, the large area would be very difficult to corral your dog especially when it is time to leave.

My favorite dog park! It's so big and everyone I've met there has been so friendly. My dogs love being off leash. It's great to walk or sit and talk. Quite clean and tidy and well looked after too. I hope you give it a try!

What a great off-leash dog park! It's not just a weedy square; it's a huge area with trees, trails, hills and a large, clean mulch area. There are also two, smaller fenced in areas for smaller dogs or if you need less stimulation. Each area has a dog-friendly water fountain and there are benches for sitting.
