About this park

The Plaza Midwood Neighborhood Association dog park sits on land shared by Barnhardt Manufacturing, with a separate area for smaller dogs. Kiddie pools turn up in warm weather, which some owners love and others blame for the mud after rain.

Before you go

Skip the day after heavy rain, when the low spots turn to mud. If your dog is small, head straight for the separated section.

Frequently asked

Is there a separate small-dog area?
Yes, a section fenced off for smaller dogs alongside the main run.
Does it get muddy?
Yes, after rain. Kiddie pools set out in warm weather make it worse, and one reviewer blames them for turning the low ground into a mud pit.
How big is it?
Not large. One regular calls it a great little spot rather than a big park, with enough room for dogs to run and play.
Who runs it?
The Plaza Midwood Neighborhood Association, on land Barnhardt Manufacturing shares with the neighborhood. Reviewers thank both by name.
