Vernon Hill Dog Park

Jessica Leonard

Brought my six month old puppy here for the first time today. Some good things; some not so good. GOOD: Two sides, one for dogs under 30 lbs, one for dogs over 30 lbs. And both sides are really large. NOT SO GOOD: There's no shade. On a hot day, it's HOT. No water fountain. BAD (but fixable?) A lot of the grass has been replaced by prostrate knotweed. I don't think this was intentional but it DOES make a good, tough ground cover. That said, it hides holes really well-- grows right across them. And they're break-your-ankle-sized holes. My dog actually stumbled in one but was fine. I spent my time there pulling out the knotweed so the holes were visible, but I think there's got to be a different solution. (I've attached a couple pictures to show what I mean)

Clean up after your animals. It's sad that city employees are there picking up dog waste.

Nice dog park, other owners are typically friendly. Sometimes really muddy and area has a lot of trash and litter so watch out for that.
