Dog Off Leash Park - Stoney Creek

Easy to get to and convenient for our dog to get a good work out.

I've walked my dogs at a number of dog-friendly parks before, but never have I had such a good experience. Not only are dogs welcomed here by all visitors, but you can take your dogs off-lead. The best part though is the socialisation area. You can safely take your dog off-lead, even if you haven't properly trained your dog's recall. There is a double-gate access to the area on both sides so that no dogs can escape when someone enters or leaves the area. All the people there were super friendly. And dog lovers. I've only been once, but can safely say that I'm now a regular, as I intend on going back every day.

Lots of fun, almost always plenty of dogs. There's a tap installed for drinking water but it's been turned off for the winter.

I like this park mainly because most of the pet owners are responsible. The park does have some design issues. For people with disabilities, it is impossible to access if you rely on a wheelchair, scooter or even a walker. The other issue is there is only one water tap and it is at the furthest point from the main entrance. The enclosed area is graded as a bowl and always becomes an unusable mud bowl during rainy months. With a few design changes this could be a great park that is accessible to all.

One of the nicest features of this park is the offleash walking trail. Again, if you are mobility challenged, the trail is not very useable during the wet months.

Beautiful walk and dog park. This will be a destination for my dog and for good when he needs a good run and socializing.
