Dog Parks

 

Hours:
6:30 AM - 7:30 PM Monday thru Sunday

Dog Park Rules:
Dogs must meet all guidelines, have an annual Pooch Pass, and maintain current vaccinations (Rabies with Tag Number, DHLPP & Bordetella) to utilize the off-leash areas.

Phase Out of Pooch Pass: Mecklenburg County Park and Recreation Department will phase out its fee for "pooch passes" in the coming year and allow use of county dog parks for free beginning July 1, 2008.  As of then, pooch passes will no longer be sold or required.

Existing Off-Leash Areas:

> Swaney Pointe K-9 Park is located at Ramsey Creek Park, 18441 Nantz Road Cornelius, NC 28078. This park is a four-acre, fenced-in, off-leash area for dogs. There are two separate fenced-in secure sections to the new dog park - one for dogs >20lbs (large) and another for dogs less than 20lbs (small).

> Barkingham Park is located at Reedy Creek Park, 2900 Rocky River Road.  This park is a four-acre, fenced-in, off-leash area for dogs.
