Millsboro Dog Park

About this park

Millsboro Dog Park is a free public park about 20 minutes inland from Rehoboth, with separate fenced yards for big and small dogs and a recently upgraded layout. The grass field is generous and on-site supply boxes hold tennis balls and frisbees. Newly planted trees have not yet matured into real shade.

Frequently asked

Is Millsboro Dog Park fenced and split by dog size?

Yes. There is a side for big dogs and a side for small dogs, both fenced, with waste bags provided on site.

Is there drinking water?

Unreliably. Older reviews report the fountain broken or shut off in early spring; a more recent visit mentions a new water trough as part of the upgrade. Carrying water and a bowl is still the safer plan.

Is there shade?

Barely. One reviewer found no shade beyond the bench, and the trees planted during the recent upgrade have not grown in yet.

How muddy does it get?

Muddy enough to come up in reviews. The grass field holds water after wet weather, and one visitor called the property well kept aside from the mud.

Have there been any incidents?

One reviewer describes a hand injury from another visitor's dog lunging for a ball, and notes the grass was covered in loose tennis balls at the time. A single account, but worth knowing that ball-heavy play is the norm here.
