There is lots of space for dogs, big and small, to play unleashed with other dogs. My friend's dogs had so much fun, and there are seats for their humans to have a drink and relax.

I have been with my parents to take their last dog, before they got their current dog to this park…read moreseveral times over the years. Don't go much anymore with the new dog, he's quite unruly and not so well behaved, except to my dad. We would go on the weekends mostly. My parent's dog, Tucker was super easy going and got on with most dogs, so this was a great place for him to run around and sniff out new friends, literally and run around and burn off energy. He loved the winters here or anywhere, best. This is a nice dog park, they have a fountain for the dog water and even have a gazebo for them to get some shade for a spell too. A very open space for dogs to run and play, a most favorite spot for parent's dog. The new dog likes it as much, but he doesn't get on as well with dogs as the last.

It's great; it's just about perfect, but you can't use it unless you're a resident of Grosse Pointe…read moreFarms. So, not an option for 99.9% of local dog owners. If I had only read the Yelp review before I stopped by, I would have known that I wasn't going to be allowed in the dog park, but I didn't (sigh), and so I swung by there with the canine, and was crestfallen when I realized I made the trip for nothing. My salvation came when a kind resident who was there took pity on us, and used his electronic fob to let us in. Although, maybe his motives were not completely altruistic - I think he saw a potential playmate for his dog in the bargain. Which was a pretty good assumption. He told me he wasn't supposed to let me in, and he'd get in trouble if someone found out, so I appreciate that. It's a great little dog park, but that is moot unless you have access, and so, I can't go for a repeat visit. It was just blind dumb luck someone let me in, and I'm certain even he wouldn't have done that except for the fact that no one else was there at the time. C'est la vie!

First and foremost, something IMPORTANT - if you click on, "Get directions" while in the Yelp…read moreapplication, you will be sent to the wrong place by Google. I'm assuming someone must have done the "find my location" drill originally when determining the location, and the GPS satellite was a little off that day, because if you follow the directions given on your phone, you're going to end up someplace else besides the park. Where will you end up, exactly? You will end up in the middle of Interstate 94, about half a mile away from the dog park, and you will be going around 70 mph when your GPS announces, "You have arrived at your destination". I've done it twice with the same result, in the same spot on I-94. Put in "Statler-Maloof Dog Park, St. Clair Shores" in your GPS, or, if it can't find that, put in "Brys Park, St. Clair Shores" in your GPS (the dog park is within the boundaries of the larger Brys Park), and that should get you to the right place. It's pretty close to where Harper and 8-Mile Road intersect. That housekeeping item aside, this is a great dog park. Additionally, it's open to BOTH residents and non-residents of St. Clair Shores alike. But, don't even bother going there until you complete the application process first, because you and Taffy/Killer/Spot/Duke/Coco/Diablo/Zoe/Bear, etc., won't be getting in without the electronic passkey (it's a key fob, in this instance) that you get after you get through the membership application. You can get an application at the dog park, online, or, have one mailed to you if you call up the department that handles it at City Hall. Yes, it's a pain to fill out the application, get all the dog's paperwork, and then take those things to the St. Clair Shores City Hall, where, if everything's in order, and you give them some money, they conditionally approve you as a member. It's conditional because you also must return later for an "Etiquette" class (not the dog, just you), and then, and only then, your electronic key fob is activated, and you and your canine quadruped can get through the gates, and use the park. You know something? It is totally worth it. Good people there, good dogs there, it's all so very copasetic. Definitely recommend!

A great park for Troy residents to socialize their dogs. I've had dogs my whole life but never…read moretook my dogs to a dog park before because of so many negative stories I've heard from other dog owners, breeders, and friends. I was a little hesitant to buy a membership but I thought it would be a good way to socialize my 10 month year old pup with other dogs since Covid canceled puppy obedience classes and trainings. I was worried about the other dogs being aggressive or possibly attacking my pup from all the horrific stories I heard. However, it's been such a great experience so far. All of the dog owners are responsible and all the dogs have been very friendly. I've felt very safe taking my dog here and she loves it! There is an fenced in area for small dogs and another one for large dogs. You can enter the park off from Livernois next to the nursing home or get there from the Troy Trail. Membership is $35 for residents or $45 for non residents. You get a key scan card and scan the card to unlock the gate to enter. There is a small pavilion with a few benches which is nice. My only complaint is that there needs to be more shade! A few big trees need to be planted because it's too hot in the summertime for the dogs. There is not even 1 tree! Tip: Bring your own water because the water fountains are still not running due to Covid.

Despite my dog being a high-energy, heat stroke can happen to any one of our fluffy companions and water being poorly accessible is a huge risk. I am happy with how much space is provided not only in the parking lot, but the yard itself. It was well maintained/paved, and owners were diligent in picking up any waste left by their pet. The fencing was in perfect condition with no signs of holes or breakage! Everyone was friendly and respectful. I do appreciate there being rules and discrepancies for dog fights and what to do in the event of one as well as the Madison Heights animal control number being listed.
