BarkPark

Notice: We will be closed from January 31st to February 1st for maintenance. We are understand that property has been muddier than usual, so we are adding more playground mulch to spot. Sorry for the inconvenience! BarkPark sits right across the street from The Salvation Army Freedom Center. This spot is fully fenced (chain link and wood) with the side facing the sidewalk being 5ft and the rest of the fence being 6ft. There is a dual-gate entrance to the spot for a safe entry and exit. Street parking is available. Plenty of seating at this spot with shade throughout the day. There's a rain barrel filled with water for dogs to hydrate and cool down. We have water bowls available. GIANT sandbox that's great for digging and playing; no digging allowed elsewhere. Trash can onsite. We have poop bags available in two different areas for easy access. Half of this spot is covered with grass and the other half with playground mulch. This spot is big enough to get a good fetch session in or to just let the zoomies out. We also recently added agility equipment. We hope you and your four-legged friend/s have an exceptional time during your visit and choose to come back. Lost toys and items: due to the amount of visits we get we aren’t able to track which items belong to which visitor. If you’ve lost a dog toy or other item, please reach out and we’ll do our best to retrieve it and save it for you. If you don’t reach out, we’ll add it to the Lost and Found Toy Box. Update: Due to the colder temperatures we won’t be adding dog drinking water until early Spring. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

55Easy parking, easy access and no issues with people/dog distractions. There were people walking dogs on the sidewalk but the fencing is good quality. The elevated train is right next to the park but after the first time it ran by my dog got used to it no issues. Clean space, good size and the agility play props are great. Best feature for me is that it’s concrete and turf, no mud to worry about. My dog had a great time, we will add to our favorites list for sure.

Tater has never been happier! He was wagging his tail the entire time - so much to do here, very clean, and great place for fetch - can’t wait to come back!

55Very clean space with various surfaces and activities for dogs, including 2 separate sitting areas for humans to watch the play time or to have some breaks for the dogs. There's some agility equipment that was fun for the dogs to explore, and provided opportunities for training fun too. We enjoyed our time and would come back! It's nice to have a spot to come on a muddy day and not worry about muddy dogs.

55We went with a friend and our pups were able to have such a fun time and run around in a safe space! We didn’t have to worry about other dogs we didn’t know and our dogs had a BLAST. Host was very accommodating and we will be visiting again! The fence took a minute to figure out, but made me feel confident that it was a secure space. Very clean and maintained nicely!

We did occasionally hear some barking. The area itself was clean and spacious. There were benches for humans, poop bags provided, and a trash can.

FAQ about our Porter dog parks

Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
Are dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 95% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Porter area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 135 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 19 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
Does Porter have any fully fenced dog parks?
Sniffspot has 135 fully fenced dog parks in or near Porter. Browse all fully enclosed options.
