Furry Fun at Denver Dog Parks
Cleanup bags are readily available at every entrance at Stapleton’s dog park. It is a wonderful place for our furry friends to romp and play with other dogs.
Olive, now about six months old now, made her first trek out to the Stapleton dog park. She was a bit shy and overwhelmed with the variety and size of many of the animals there. I’m looking forward to the time when Olive is more comfortable in her skin and plays with the rest of the dogs.
We are lucky that Denver people love their dogs and have worked hard to provide dog parks in numerous locations around the Denver area.

I’m sure I’ve missed a few of the great places for dogs. I know Lowry residents are planning a dog park and working to raise funds to make it a reality. They are accepting donations if you’d like to help. If I have not included your favorite dog park, feel free to add the location in your comments.
Some of these locations do not have fenced in areas and you must be in control of your dog at all times. Please display courtesy at all locations by cleaning up after your dog and making sure they are friendly at play.
Olive and I are going to try several of these parks out. We are looking forward to meeting you. Just look for the dog that is hanging out with all the people and you have found us.

Yeah I actually heard about the Dog park too and thought it would be a great idea… Here is more information on that: http://www.lowry.org/eastpark/eastpark_openspace.htm
Kennedy dog park is more like a dirt park. The park is smaller than a regulation soccer field and has no grass and only a few weeds to make it look even remotely green. There is no signage to the dog park. When parking in the designated dog-park area get out and face all the signs that don’t tell you where it is and go to the right at the split fence area, it is that raised up part of land with a bench and a bunch of signs facing into the park telling you when you have to put the leash on. If you go anywhere else in the soccer area you have to have a leash. My opinion is find a better park, with grass, dogs, and friendly people.
