White Rock Lake Dog Park

It is separated into three areas: one for big dogs, one for little dogs and one with waterfront access and a fenced-in swimming area. This puppy paradise boasts great views of the lake, trail, and wildflower areas. Both you and your dog will enjoy the wide variety of big and small K-9’s that frequent this park! Of note, you’re only steps away from hiking, jogging, cycling, or boating around Dallas’ largest lake. The park is closed on rain days and every Monday for maintenance. 8000 E. Mockingbird Lane, Dallas
My Best Friend’s Park- Klyde Warren Park
Located in downtown Dallas and offering opportunities to cool off in the fountain, meet new friends or simply let off some steam in this fenced-in space. Keep in mind it is a not a large park and probably too small if you’ve got a large pooch. The wider Klyde Warren complex is generally full of people, with awesome events scheduled almost daily. 2012 Woodall Rodgers Freeway, Dallas.
NorthBark Park
A 22.3 acre “off-leash” dog park, located in far north Dallas near the North Dallas Tollway and President George Bush Tollway. This dog park provides trails and an expansive lawn area where your pup can run to their hearts delight. Pamper your pet on the unique “dog beach” adjacent to the doggy lake, frolic on the 6 foot wide loop trail, lounge under the pavilion, or cool off in the doggy shower surrounded by beautiful metal fencing with custom cut dog silhouettes and elegant flagstone structures. Visit NorthBark Wednesdays through Sundays, closed on Tuesdays and rainy days. 4899 Gramercy Oaks Drive, Dallas.
Bark Park Central
A 1.2 acre off-leash urban dog park in the heart of Deep Ellum that offers great views of downtown. This fenced in area also features shaded areas, a dog shower and a pet waste section. You will enjoy the whimsical dog murals created by local artists and love that you are within walking distance of many dog-friendly restaurants and bars. Six-foot-tall fences mean that bigger dogs and jumpers are safe in the off-leash area. Parents of smaller pups should note, though, there’s no separate area for little dogs. Parking can be a bit of a challenge. Closed on rainy days and Tuesdays for maintenance. 2530 Commerce St., Dallas
Wagging Tale Bark Park
The first dog park designed by the City of Dallas, Wagging Tail Dog Park is a 6.9 acre “off-leash” dog park. Located in North Dallas, northwest of Preston Road, Wagging Tail has a wonderful flagstone observation deck that rises 35 feet above White Rock Creek offering incredible views of a waterfall.
