While there are many dog parks in the Dallas area, few can compare to White Rock Lake Dog Park.
This lovely park, situated at 8000 Mockingbird Lane in Dallas, was the first dedicated dog park in the region and it is still one of the best.
Part of the larger White Rock Lake Park, the off-leash dog area encompasses 3 vast acres of super-green grass, with excellent views of the lake, wildflower garden and the many trails that crisscross the park.
It has separate regions for small dogs and large dogs (to avoid aggressive incidents), and the entire area is surrounded by a 6-foot tall ornamental fence and mow strip, with secure, self-locking gates for both areas.
The amenities at White Rock Lake Dog Park are almost too numerous to count.
They include drinking bowls and a water fountain for dogs, shaded structures in both the small dog and large dog paddocks, a pet waste station and several trash receptacles.
For pet parents, there are a number of benches and picnic tables, a boat launch area, lighted parking (for those visiting the dog park after dark) and a nice pavilion with electrical outlets that is perfect for hosting get-togethers.
Your dog will simply love the chance to run, play and mingle at the White Rock Lake Dog Park.
It is very well-designed and certainly one of the most beautiful dog parks in the area, offering a little something for everyone.
Note: the dog park is closed on rainy days, so before heading out in inclement weather, make sure to call the “rain out” line at (214) 614-6711.
