Pioneer Dog Park

Update 3/2024: A year later, still great. *During dusk, the pathways are gently lit. *More grass has filled in the dirt patches. *Less public toys to use. *Metal poop scoop and rake to use (less plastic poop bag use = good) *Dedicated parking lot Out-of-towner Review: * fully fenced with TWO separated areas (one for small dogs and one for large dogs) * hours : dawn till 10pm * ground cover : grass, dirt/sand, paved pathway for humans and three paved patios with benches and shade cover * multiple trees (shade) and a hill create variety for dogs * plethora of tennis balls and random dog toys on ground for public use * poop bags provided (at multiple posts) and garbage cans This was a great park for our four day use. We went morning and evening for our two pups and each time any and all dogs we met were great. Playground nearby for human kids to play, too.

Palm Desert does a great job of providing safe spaces for dogs to run around. This is a prime example, there is ample free parking close by. My only issue was the amount of dog poo that others had not picked up. Come on people, pick up your dogs waste. It’s not like they don’t provide you with bags and garbage to dispose it in.

Dog park was not open when I arrived at 6pm today. No signs or anything says it’s closed but there were bike locks at the gate. And people use the playground as dog park, dog poop in play ground area where kids run around, not cool

Nice dog park with sections for large and small dogs. Well cared for and there is pioneer park right next to it. Our dog Nugget liked it.

A great place! Good people and good dogs. Self policing owners, if a dog can't behave, you gotta go. Poop bags on hand and watering stations. Good size for dogs to run. Separate big and small dog areas. We go every day. New folks and dogs are always welcomed enthusiastically.
