The actual dog park facilities are located at the rear of Homer Leggett Memorial Park behind the existing concession and bathroom facility and adjacent to the train facsimile playground. There are three separate fenced-in areas for dogs, with three categories of activities. There is a fenced in area for open play for dogs under 35 pounds, one for dogs over 35 pounds and one large area for open play for dogs of any size. Although all areas will be used at the owners’ risk, the latter will be open to animals of all sizes under the discretion of the owners. Each fenced in area has a secured entrance with two separate gates. One gate allows entry into the area that has access to the second gate that takes the owner and pet into the open play area reducing the chance of escape.
The 35 pounds and larger area is estimated at approximately 6,400 square feet. The 35 pounds and under is estimated at approximately 3,813 square feet. The open play area is estimated at approximately 16,577 square feet.
