About this park

Salvador Perez Dog Park is the fenced run inside the larger community park of the same name on the south side of the city: a long, narrow strip with a covered picnic table, a shared human-and-dog drinking fountain, and enough room for bigger dogs to stretch out. Sitting behind the community center keeps crowds small.

Salvador Perez Dog Park reviews

What visitors consistently say
The highlights

Reviews split. The favorable ones point to the covered picnic table, the shared water fountain, and a run long enough for a big dog to sprint. The critical ones cite dog waste left on the ground and pushy owners.

Best for

Large dogs

Before you go

Cleanup can be inconsistent, so bring your own bags and watch where you step. The park is slightly hidden behind the community center; use the Salvador Perez Park entrance and walk around.

Frequently asked

Is this the same as Salvador Perez Park?
Not quite. The fenced run sits inside the wider community park, which also holds tennis and volleyball courts, a playground, and a vintage locomotive display.
Is it fenced and off-leash?
Yes. Salvador Perez Dog Park is a fully fenced off-leash run, long rather than wide, with space for a big dog to build up speed.
Is there water?
A combination fountain beside the run serves both people and dogs.
Is it easy to find?
Not especially. The run sits behind the community center rather than off the main lot, and more than one reviewer describes it as hidden.
