Dogwood Park

Welcome to the ultimate Facebook page for Jacksonville pet owners and members and visitors of Dog Wood Park! We are excited to use this page for announcements, information and sponsor discounts for pet owners of all types of pets. Although Dogwood Park is a park for canines, we recognize that pet lovers often have more than one type of animal so we welcome all users.

Visitors are welcome to enter the park anytime between 10 am and pm M-F and 10 am and 6 pm Saturday and Sunday. The park closes at 10 pm and members can access the park as early as 6 am.

Our off-leash park is a unique 42-acre (25 acres are currently fenced) private country club providing fitness, recreational, relaxation, and socializing opportunities for both you and your dog.

Dogs can run off-leash to their hearts' content in a safe, controlled environment. The off-leash park offers both dogs and their people a variety of recreational and fitness amenities, including dog-swimming ponds, jogging/walking trails, and play equipment such as tunnels.

Perhaps even more importantly, the off-leash park gives dogs a chance to socialize with others of their own kind. Regular off-leash exercise and play with other dogs will result in a healthier, happier, more well-adjusted dog.

Our off-leash park features the following amenities:

* Lake Bow Wow, a 2-acre swimming lake for dogs (with a fountain!)
* 25 acres fenced with 6-foot chain link fence
* Huge fields for frisbee and throwing balls
* A 4-acre shady area for those hot days
* A dog shower for muddy paws
* Barkham Woods, a 10-acre natural wooded area with nature trails around and through it
* Small dog area for dogs under 25 pounds with both sunny and shady sections, and Lake Fifi, a small dog swimming pond!
* Night dog: three lighted acres for use after dark (until 10 p.m.)
* Special Events: a one or three-acre separate area that can be rented for parties, festivals, or any kind of special event
* Kids 'N Dogs: a separate area with playground equipment for kids of all ages and kid-friendly dog
* Picnic tables
* A doggie sand pile for climbing and digging
* Tunnels, tires, jumps and other fun exercise obstacles for the dogs
* Park-provided tennis balls
