Berkeley Lake Dog ParkPlenty of poopy bags available. All pea gravel dog park. People have kept the grounds clean.
Nice Park
Waggin' Tails Bark ParkFrom Francis Street turn south onto Union and go to the end and turn right into the parking lot. Very large and clean. Sandy surface. This park is maintained by community volunteers. Park has a Hydrant and a port-a-John is nearby.
Keeping Busy
Golden Spike Tower & Visitor CenterThis dog park turned out to be a very pleasant surprise! The 3 dogs had a great time riding running and searching all the areas and found something to chase under the storage container. They crawled underneath but couldn’t reach the critter. Take some water in with you.
Deteriorating Features - More Clearing
Messenger Marsh Dog ParkI originally gave this park a 5 but with all the clearing of the thick shrubs and trees, I give it a 3. The clearing of the small trees and bush in the last 3 years is a great example of making a great park into an average one. Both sides of the large dog areas are now clear of bushes and small trees. In the spring dogs used to blaze lots in of paths and tunnels through the under growth and tall grass. Now they lose interest quickly since the area is mostly lawn with little area to explore. I used to go there 3 or 4 times a week traveling 12 miles one way but my dogs don’t run and explore like they used to so it’s not worth my time to take them there. Another problem is the reduced amount of shade. The hot sunny days are a little brutal.
Too many Stickers!!!
Kirtland Dog ParkBoth my girls got their paws stuck which made them limp and they had to stop to chew them out. Stay was short.
Good and Clean
Bitter Creek Bark ParkThis location has a lot of bare ground that will turn muddy when it rains.
Great Park!
Amity Dog ParkStopped for the first time and my dogs had a great time. One is a swimmer so next time I’ll let her into the pond area. The pond water is a little murky and there are some muddy areas but there’s a small stream outside so of the fenced pond with clear running water where I can rinse her off. I’ll wear my boots next time and take in a large plastic container to pick up the stream water to wash off the mud.
Nice Park
Rose West Dog ParkLots of dogs were there and the grounds and restrooms were very clean. Grass was thin so it could be muddy after a rain.
Nice park and good location
Dempsey Dog ParkConvenient location and easily found. Provided a nice break for my dogs to stretch and relieve themselves after a long drive.
Water Play! Free Park!
Dog IslandI stopped here in the Spring to give my two girls a break after a long travel day. I was there for over an hour and a half because one of them was having so much fun she didn’t want to leave. They love running and playing in the water and just exhausted themselves. I assumed they would get muddy and was planning to bathe them at the motel. It was worth the trouble!
Nice Walking Area!
Northside ParkI spent the week in OC and took my two girls for a walk around the park every day. We went out in the Boardwalk and enjoyed seeing people crabbing and fishing.
Great Lake Fun! Free park!
Bow Wow BeachSince both of my dogs enjoy the water, the BringFido lake description peaked my interest so on my trip to Maryland, I traveled a little out of my way to give them an hour break there. I took water to rinse them off but didn’t need it. The beach sand was not muddy and the lake water fairly clear so they may have come out cleaner than when they went in! I plan to stop there for a break again on my next trip.
Small Park
Ocean City Dog PlaygroundThe park is near the water tower. The given address takes you to the apartments at the west end of the street. After a quick exploration of the grounds, my two girls were ready to leave. If your dog likes playing with strangers or chasing a ball, this may be a good stop for you. Mine love to explore and search so this was not a good park for them.
