Being in the downtown core, this dog park is conveniently located, but that is also the reason it's so small.
The double sets of gates give peace of mind because the thought of a dog getting loose and running into traffic on Carlton or Jarvis is a personal fear of mine.
Having a separate section for smaller dogs is a nice touch, and it has added security screening around the fence.
It can get muddy and being small it's really noticeable when people don't pick up after their dogs, so we try and pick up what we see even if it wasn't our dogs - if everyone did that it would always be clean.
It's nice having a dog park this close but I still would rather make the trip to Cherry Beach Leash free where the dogs can really run - and swim!
