| - After moving to North Phoenix last week, I was looking for a new place to take my corgi since he loves the dog park. I found Foothills Park on google maps and decided to try it out. I was pleasently surprised by this dog park. It has two seperate parks connected by the entrance area. One is a big open area and has some obstacle courses. The second is a smaller grassy area for small dogs.
When we arrived, I was surprised by the amount of big dogs there. There were at least eight big dogs playing and having fun. When I brought my dog in, they all came up and checked him out, but none of them were aggressive or bullies to him. The owners were friendly and my dog seemed to enjoy the place. The obstacle course is simple, great for a newbie dog.
As we were there, at least twelve more dogs showed up. Since half of them were smaller dogs, people began migrating to the small dog area. The small dog area is nice for the dogs that get nervous around the bigger pups, but it seems to be lacking. The obstacle course is definitely designed for smaller to medium sized dogs, yet there are no obstacles on the small dog side. Other than that, its a nice break for the small pups.
Foothills Park is a great place for anyone in the NW valley looking for a place to take their dog. People are friendly and clean up after their dogs, the dogs are nice and friendly, and its in a beautiful area. I definitely recommend checking it out if you're in the area.
