Dog Park In Woodbury MN

Woodbury Dog Park is an off-leash dog park that encompasses 70 acres on Dale Road about three quarters of a mile east of Cottage Grove Drive. The physical address of the Woodbury Dog Park is 1164 Dale Road, Woodbury, Minnesota 55125.

This beautiful open space property has mowed walking trails that are great for running with your dog, open yard spaces for free play with Frisbees and to allow your dog to roam, as well as benches for convenient seating. If you’d like to make an afternoon of it at the Woodbury Dog Park there is also a shelter area with picnic tables so you can lunch while allowing your dog off-leash freedom. The dog park is open from dawn to dusk. There are a few rules that you must follow at Woodbury Dog Park to comply with city ordinances.

All dogs must have a dog license. You can print a dog license application and take it to the City Hall at 8301 Valley Creek Road during regular business hours to make your dog legal. You need to renew every two years, and rabies vaccination proof must be presented when purchasing your initial dog license.

Once at Woodbury’s off-leash dog park you can use the pet watering station, pet waste disposal station and trash containers freely. Your dog must be leashed upon entry and exit to the park. Inside the park owners are responsible for their dog’s behavior and feces. Bags are provided for feces disposal at the waste disposal station. There is also an informational kiosk which posts the rules of the park. All dog training devices are prohibited at the park to prevent aggressive behavior. Caution should be the rule when children are in the park. Parents should not allow children to approach unknown dogs without owner permission.
