The park was open on Christmas. Our dog got to get some good socialization in. The park is clean and well stocked. The water bowl is clean and clear. I will definitely go back and recommend the place with no reservations.

Pontiff dog park is in the heart of old metairie. This dog park receives very little attention from jefferson parish park & recreation. The doggie waste bags are empty a lot, the trash cans aren't emptied regularly. In the summer, the grass gets high even though the rest of Pontiff playground is mowed regularly. I don't know why most of the dog park has rocks instead of grass. It's convenient for me to take my dog to play, but that's all I can say about it.

This dog park is EXTREMELY nice! We went on a Wednesday late morning and no one was there, but a couple walkers on the trail said that weekends there are lots of dogs! As far as the park and all the “dog amenities” are top notch. I absolutely recommend this dog park.

It's pretty good, great neighborhood, nice people, grass, sand and gravel, water and dog dropping bags. It's small but good.

Brad Roth the East Bank Administrator of Jefferson Parish Parks abused a beautiful friendly dog, kicking it twice!! Then proceeded to throw balls that were left in the park over the fence towards the railroad tracks littering the outside of the park. A spiteful action which was childish. Not the best first impression. He was on a walk through with his boss and architect whom only ignored his terrible behavior. It is a shame that the people in charge of providing these parks can not respect the citizens paying taxes and their animals. The nice lady whose dog was kicked twice and another man were also there who were very upset. I captured a photo of Mr. Roth right after kicking this sweet small dog as it cowards away. Mr.Roth in the pink shirt, told us he was going to call the police on us for toys in the park that were there before any of us arrived! Can you believe that? Only had 1 star because it won't let me post with 0. He should be thanking the stars he didn't kick my dog, I'll just say he wouldn't of had a chance to kick him again.
