Great little neighborhood dog park. Everyone is friendly and their owners are well behaved. Multiple picnic tables and some medium sized trees provide a little shade depending on the time of day. The city does a great job of keeping it mowed and clean.

Closest dog park to my home, so I go there frequently.Good points:* No mud puddles. The most heavily trafficked lawn (closest to the entrance), which was more than half bare earth, has been removed & replaced with gravel. Even after a rain, this section is no longer muddy & messy. Great improvement from 2017.* There are a few trees, which provides some shade on a hot summer day.* The other people who come to the park are as friendly as those at the other parks.* Dog owners there may be a little better about cleaning up after their dogs.* Its small enough that you can see your dog at all times, even if youre sitting at one of the picnic tables.Bad:* Its a small, boring little park.* The grass doesnt get cut as often as the rest of Walnut Grove park. Harder to pick up the poop.Many of the photos are from the 2nd All Breeds Dog Party, which was held on August 3rd, 2018.

Great dog park tucked away in the park, a lot of usuals with great dogs. Variety of areas from gravel to mostly grass and some prairie

Basic dog park. Theres a chuck It there. We found a bees nest in the back today 8/22

Went to the dog park section of the park. It had some mud but not as muddy as the one off Segoe. I would go again.

Friendly neighborhood dog park with wooded walking trails behind the dog park if there arent many dogs there. They have a Facebook group too

LOVELY PARK, NICE AND SOCIAL PEOPLE. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Not too big, but not too small. Good size park to let your for legged friend burn off some energy.

Unfortunately this park is a mess at this time. Weeds and grass are knee high or higher. I hope it gets some attention soon.

Doggo loves going here. It’s small but seems to have a good mix of pup visitors. Perfect for the quick visit and some energy burn!

Fun park, good dogs and dog owners.

Nice track around the park, like the park for my daily morning walk.

Dogs love this one esp. giant ditch to explore

Great dog park. Not the biggest around Madison but a decent size. Just make sure it hasnt rained recently. Otherwise get ready to deal with a muddy dog.

Smaller fenced in dog park. Easy to track your dog from one spot. Gets muddy in the spring.

Park is always clean and people watch the dogs. Close knit group of dog owners who hold gatherings and run a park FB page

Very friendly neighborhood and patrons of the park. Its very clean.

Nice dog park, set back from the road a lil bit, but it is just a short walk down a paved path to the front gate.

Great community dog park. Small enough that you can’t loose sight of your pooch! Friendly dogs and owners.

Been here couple times, medium size off leash dog park. It was closed today thou, not sure how long the spring thaw will continue, my puppy was very disappointed :(

Lovely little park with space to run and rest. Plenty of friendly dogs to frolic with.

Nice little wooded park with newly updated playgrounds for all ages.

I experienced a HORRIBLE situation today (August 6th, 2019) at this dog park: I was asked to leave the park by a young Park Ranger.This is my first time to Madison. I drove all the way from Moline (Illinois) for a job interview. My elderly sick mom came with me along with my American Leopard dog. Before returning home, and after the interview, I decided to visit this park, as I found its description on Google maps. There were three owners that were leaving the park as I, carrying my moms arm on one side and my dog on the other were making the uphill trek to the park. Immediately, as we were entering the Park Ranger asked me directly if I had a paid pass (?). I said that I was out of town and that I didnt. He told me that I had to leave. As I was exiting I asked the young Park Ranger why he didnt ask the three dog owners that were leaving the park that very same question, if they also had a paid pass, his response was that they were not ON the park. Afterwards, when I asked if he asks every person that comes to the park that question, his response was that he can read it on the tag (??) meaning that he didnt.This is not ALL! As we were leaving, he followed us behind. As I entered my car and took a few minutes setting navigation on my phone, the Park Ranger parked behind us waited until we left, to start driving behind us!I have an accent, I was born in Argentina but naturalized as American some 20 years ago after many hardships. As an American, I felt harrasassed by this person who came very close to sounded like a racist. I felt disgust and now carry a bad impression with my first visit to such a beautiful city as Madison. How wrong!

One of my favorite dog parks so far. Is small enough to keep an eye on pup, but still enough room for him to run around with his friends.Went there after a week of rain and the ground dried up nicely! Seems very well maintained!

Beautiful park been coming here all my life

Nice play area and well maintained tennis court

The pup always enjoys a visit to the dog park!

Great shaded place to enjoy time with your dog. Frequented park with playmates at nearly all reasonable hours.

Went for the dog park. Was really disappointed to see how small it was. There was a dispenser with waste bags, so thats a plus. If youre looking for a place for your pooch to stretch her legs, head to the Middleton dog park. Much more room to roam.

I wouldve greatly appreciated a human restroom, but the dog loved it! Large area thats very well kept and an adjacent playground for my kid to use!

Nice dog park here.

While this park doesnt have a dedicated parking lot, it has a bright light that comes on the and shines in the dog park at dusk. In the winter, most dog parks are no longer worth going to after 5 because of the dark. This park is the exception.

Very friendly

Nice, small off-leash dog park.

Great place for familys. There are Ducks to feed, fishing and a nice playground.

This dog park is a nice place to meet some friendly dogs and their owners.

You can totally get lost in the woods...I did. Lol

You Need Dog Card ticket Of $40

Lovely wee woo

Just what you think of and expect from a neighborhood park!

Sports centered park with logs of fields for soccer. Due to the large size and limited lighting, a nice spot for stargazing inside the city.

Not good...pitiful actually

Really big park. Nice for dogs also.

Grass needs to be mowed more often

Great for dogs and practicing softball
