Barks & Recreation Center Dog Park


Who Wants to Go to the Park?

Silly question, all the happy hounds want to go to the park.

And now they can.

Our new Barks & Recreation Center is the ultimate dog park experience, and just one more reason why your dog will love it here. The park is full of exciting features like a splash pool, shaded play area, and paw-friendly artificial turf, plus the whole park is cleaned & sterilized nightly to protect your happy hound’s health.

Just like our indoor rooms, you can check in on your happy hound via the Barks & Rec webcam, as well as the delightful Nose Cam.
