Carol Disher Leash-Free Dog Park

The area is nice. There's a splash pad and playground nearby for kids, the dog area is completely enclosed and the community garden between them, when it's in bloom, looks amazing.

Needed to seek out a new park because our normal one was closed. Pretty good park, most of the dogs are awesome but the people are terrible. Not for medium or small dogs. Not all dogs are friendly here, both of my dogs were attacked. The owners did nothing and laughed me out. Kind of cliquey, if you’re new don’t go unless you know someone.

What to say about this place?...it would be nice if the city actually cared about it. They did bring new mulch which is good but I've had to call for the garbage to be dumped(they did 1/5 of it),as the winds carry the dog feces smell across the one entrance. I'm not sure how involved the city is on paper but considering there is almost no where to have dogs legally off leash they should be more concerned as they mandated the regulations to begin with. That being said I frequent it often(almost unusable after a rain). Most of the dogs I've encountered in there are quite well behaved...every now and again one or two can be trouble but the owners have always took charge and walked the doggy out.

It’s a decent dog park, although it is small. I like that they frequently drop off wood chips, but they seem to just leave them in large piles all year long, so they never really get raked around the property which defeats their purpose. There are some dog owners that bring dogs that are not neutered/spayed which can create issues, so be aware of this. There are also sometimes aggressive/dominant dogs that are brought to this location frequently so also be aware of this.

Such a nice park and very friendly dogs when we were there, great splash pad and playground right within a two minute walk at Russell Avenue Park

I'm happy I have a place in our neighborhood to take the dog to an unleashed park but for the amount of dogs it's a small park. Also, there's not enough people who clean up after their dog.

Even though we've had a lot of rain recently, I was surprised at just how muddy this park is. It was like a swamp. The city should do something about that. Other than that, it's a nice park for the dog to run in

A little small but nice to see a park like this in an older residential part of the city. We visited on a winter day with good snow cover, so no mud issues. Good seating and lots of street parking nearby.

Decent park, closest to home for us so we frequent it. Could use better maintenance but it's decent for what it is.Just be sure to watch for aggressive/ poorly trained dogs, have had multiple negative encounters with bad owners.
