    Used to love this place but now…

    I used to love this place but now the crowd has changed for some reason. It used to be a friendly and welcoming community everyone knew each other whether by friendly conversations or just seeing each other often and knowing your dogs get along. Nowadays ( after the stabbing at Shawnee park) the crowd has become a bit hostile with aggressive dogs and aggressive, ignorant owners. My biggest issue is when someone takes their aggressive dog keeps them on a leash because they know the dogs aggressive and/or takes them to the small and timid side ( off leash!) !!!! It makes no sense to me and then when asked to please leave the small and timid side they get offensive and begin to argue when there’s nothing to argue about… ITS THE SMALL AND TIMID SIDE, If the dog is not small nor timid…do I even need to say it? They do not belong there! So why the unnecessary aggressive confrontations? Idk but this has happened 4 times to me in the last 2 months and I’m sure it’s happened many more times to other friendly dog & owners. Sucks leaving a bad review but it’s the truth

    Nothing spectacular

    its ok. just 2 fenced areas (1 for smaller dogs). Takes a while for them to turn the lights on when it gets dark.

    Nice spot to socialize dogs

    I have small dogs so we go to small dog side. Been going for 3 years now. The folks I talk to are mostly retired but friendly. Laid back and nice place to let the dogs visit. Wish they had more shade though.

    Nice Park With Weird Vibe

    This is a perfectly nice park on the smaller side. It’s just a semi grassy field, no walking paths. The weird part is people of all ages sit around in chairs and just watch the dogs

    OK, but not preferred

    Compared to other parks in the area that I've been to with my dog, this place gets a lower rating. I was skeptical of some of the previous reviews that disparaged the people there, but they're correct. To the two oblivious owners of the small Pit Bull that kept chewing on my dog over and over and over again...maybe you should try keeping fish for pets instead. They'll take about as much training and restraint as you showed with your dog this evening.

    Big park with lots of water!!

    Always gone when it there was 1-2 other people there. Always kind. They sometimes run out of poop bags, but they do refill them often. My german shepherd and smaller mutt love it. Everyone that has been there when I am there are kind.

    Have fun at the park!

    Large breeds are not be feared. The area reserved for TIMID dogs is not just for small breeds. Small breed owners, please socialize yourself and your dogs with large dogs and their owners!

    Theze old people own the park from the benches to the fences. Wish animal control would stop by and straighten them out.

    disorderly conduct and harassment

    Be careful, there is a recently discharged Afghanistan marine in there and he curses every pet parent whose dog likes to play. He is abusive and will offer to kick your ass. He probably is a hero but needs adjusting to society again . You'll see him because he walks around as if a sniper is out there. He is currently under police review from the complaints. Careful he carries weapons and obviously needs council. .....just leave to be safe, I see the people go when he walks in..hope justice prevails and he gets help. Again be careful. M.S counseling.

    my boxer loves it

    The only thing bad about the park is some people don't pick up after their dog. But then again BYOPPB bring your own poop poop bag. The park doesn't provide poop poop bags.

    I've been here twice. Once for a doggie intro to adopt a dog, the second time to allow new dog (a puppy) to get out and about. He is a sweet dog, but somehow, sticking to myself, watching my dog... I get nagged out of the park for existing. They liked my dog, just didn't want me there. I'll never go back, the seniors there don't seem to like younger folks with big puppies. If you are 55+ with a toy breed, you'll have fun.
