VISITORS NOT WELCOME. Perry Paw is a huge, controlled access dog park. Its about 4 times larger than necessary. Its nice that the County has provided this feature for the community, but it could have provided 3 other communities with dog parks for the same money, but more appropriately sized.I visited (the card reader still wasnt activated after several postponed "grand openings") the park noonish on a beautiful spring weekday. No one was there. I returned 1 hr later, and there was just one couple with their dogs, who were leaving. I have checked it out a few other times this winter. Each side of the park has a water station. There are a few benches, but otherwise no other amenities. Ground is scruffy grass. There is no shelter from rain, sun, wind, etc for man nor beast. A dog park should be a wonderful people park. People have a discussion point-- their beloved dogs, which is far more interesting than the weather. This park is controlled by a cadre of uptight people, who have created more rules than Congress. Uptight people produce uptight dogs. People who dont understand/believe this should watch a few episodes of Cesar Millan. That there have been near (people) fights about who can come in is not surprising. What do dogs want? More dogs. Dogs like meeting other dogs. And they dont care whether the humans are rich or poor, or black or white. Visit instead a dog-friendly dog park, like the one in Patterson Park.

It is so smart to allow folks to try out the park to see if it is for them before they sign up their dogs. My big old poodle, Blake, loved it and so did I. Thanks to all who worked so tirelessly to make the park happen. I think the idea of a fee to join is excellent. Not only will dogs be identified and those breaking the rules ousted but also folks can help remind one another that they must clean up after their dogs. That is something that is not happening at the moment. So glad that problem will be fixed with dog identification. The park is beautiful, perfect and such a great idea! Thanks to all who made it happen. Thanks to those who brought in non aggressive, friendly dogs. What fun.

We travel with our dog, so we look for places where she can get a little energy out. It is ridiculous to have a dog park off-limits to "outsiders." Even the people there with their dogs were apologetic about it, saying that theyll get kicked out if they allow someone in that hasnt paid. As for the park itself, it is basically under-equipped compared to most other dog parks in the country. Its just grass surrounded by a locked fence, not much else. Maybe a bench? What does this fee get you? Really disappointed. So, we just trotted around the outside of the park, and I kind of think our greyhound enjoyed that just as much. Too bad.

LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!! It is SUPER huge. Some of the owners in the area have lived there for awhile, and have brought their dogs there before it was an actual dog park...they are a little uptight. But other than that, its the perfect size for my husky girl to get all of energy out! I take here there for about an hour, then we go running around the park so shes too tired to pull.

You should not have to pay for your dog to run around and be free. That is like having your child have to pay to go to the park at honey go. Its ridiculous. At least the one at Patterson park has a swimming pool and a better set up. I would not waste 30$ a month just for my dog to run around when i could do that anywhere.

Didnt state it was a membership park. No signs to indicate exactly where it was in the park. Had to follow other people with pets to the fenced area. Nothing special and stick that membership.

It s so upseting they have no phone number. My card didn`t work after I paid the membership, and you have to wait to the emails...because it s no number to call. So upsetting...

Very nice park with great walking trails. The dog park was nice. It was a little on the small side for how much space they had. But overall it was a good visit.

Its a big grass fenced in field with gate that locks. However, the trails behind the dog area are great.
