West Chandler Bark Park

No complaints from me. It’s small, but I don’t necessarily think that’s bad. Plenty of room to tire out my little guy throwing the ball or frisbee. For the most part, the other dogs have been fine. I enjoy coming here.

It’s a great park. Fenced in, plenty of room for the dogs. Water hose and buckets on site. Always busy around sunset.

The fences keep little dogs in and there is water, toys, and obstacles for the pups. All of the owners are very responsible for their dogs. Pebbles had a blast!

While our usual dog park is closed for the summer undergoing turf maitanence this is a nice alternative. Its a small park compared to RJ dog park doesn’t have a real seperation between large and small dogs but there is an agility course and plenty of dogs here on a Tuesday night around 830.
The dog park can be described as a narrow patch of well maintIned grass grass be sure to bring some bags as its not supplied by the city but runs on donations.
There is water with buckets spread and hand sanitizer under the main concrete area.
Since its next to a pool you’ll get a bit outdoor music.
Owners are pretty cool and care about their dogs.

One day out of the blue, my wife says that I should take our dog, Jada, to the dog park. With vague directions on where to go, my daughter and I found the Chandler playground equipped with a swimming pool and the Bark Park. The Park Bark offers a large fenced in enclosure with a two gate system to enter. I let Jada off her leash after traversing the second gate. She was the smallest dog in the park, but all of the other larger dogs were friendly and there was no actual barking. The larger dogs were playing fetch with balls and Frisbees. I suspect that most of the owners who take their dogs to the Bark Park have well behaved dogs. Turns out that Jada is more of a people person, and hung out with me most of the time rather than interacting with the other dogs. She didn’t explore much, so my daughter and I took her over to the training area for some doggy alone time. The training area is a slightly smaller, yet large fenced in area with ramps and dog-​sized horse jumps. The Bark Park is a great place if you are looking to give your dog some off leash time in the city. I would recommend a few poop bags and some toys.

We went to this park in hopes of giving our dog Buffy a good experience outdoors. This was not the case at West Chandler Bark Park. Here’s the scoop:
–This park is tiny compared to Shawnee and Paseo bark parks also in Chandler
–No one was there on a Saturday afternoon except for three guys
–Of those three guys one did not have the consideration to tell his stupid dog to stop jumping on my husband and I who were sitting on a bench. That dog kept messing with our dog, messing with us and it got to the point where the owner finally got off his butt, pulled his dog away from us and instead of apologizing he said «Do you guys have dog treats or something?» What a moron.
Check out Paseo if you’re in Chandler, this park will impress you and your dog:

The park has two parts to it: a nice open grassy area and an agility course. It’s very nice and clean with a shaded patio area. My dog and I love it here! I usually go at around 5pm on the weekdays and it is quite crowded.
I never noticed that children under 12 were not allowed, but I’ve seen children in the area and no one seem to really care. There are plastic doggie bags, water bowls, and scoops available. The only thing to be careful about is that it does not separate small and big dogs… they play in one big area.

Park always seems to be empty whenever we’ve gone, and we’ve gone at all different times. It’s fun when there are horses in the field next to the park; my dogs are fascinated. People are always nice, and of course the dogs are, too. Park is fairly big, but I like Chandler’s Shawnee better, because it’s bigger, hilly, and there’s more shade.
As a person with no kids, I’m fine with Chandler’s «no children under 12 allowed» rule. It’s for the dogs, not the kids. Plus, I don’t want your kid running into my dog’s teeth. Ask me again in a few years when I have kids myself, though.. .

I have a bone to pick with this dog park (pun intended).
No Children under 12 allowed.
