Berkeley Park Dog Park

Berkeley is in a nice area and highly accessible to many Denverites and surrounding suburbs. The park is usually packed during clear weather, especially on weekends and after work (5ishpm). There is also big ole Berkeley Lake to take a walk around before or after your dog park visit to chill out the poochies that much more.

The only con I have for this park is the fact that one of my dogs is somewhat fearful of other dogs, and therefore this place can be overwhelming for her. For well socialized pups this place is no problem, and probably totally exciting! It's also a great place to socialize pups... responsibly, that is. I have run across a great many irresponsible owners here as well, though -- but you take the good with the bad, and so long as you're alert and know how to handle dog situations all is well. It is just irritating when people bring in intact, undersocialized, or maltreated pooches -- which happens more than I'd like to see.

Pros: large, fenced, super popular- THE Denver dog park.

Cons: sometimes overwhelmingly busy.

I went to this dog park once, it was quite interesting. I was offered weed, and somebody else offered me some beer, but they were friendly, and obvioulsy cared about their dogs. All in all it was a decent little dog park.

Pros: interesting people go there

Cons: not too clean
