Chaparral Dog Park
Active and passive sides so every dog finds its speed
About this park
A spacious fenced off-leash park split into active and passive sides so dogs can match play style instead of just size. Grassy fields, shaded benches, water stations, and agility features round out an unusually complete setup, with evening hours that make it workable for after-work visits in the heat.
