    Bridge next to large dog entrance
    Lisa T.

    Very nice dog park! Small and large areas separated. Next to a river with a bridge and trail to walk. Agressive Homeless man was in the bathroom so be mindful. Well manicures park with water and dog bags. Some trees for shade and benches. Plenty of area for dogs to run.

    Water fountain and drain below both clogged. Dogs can't drink because of stagnant water. Holes in ground around fountain? No problem; just cover them with bread racks. Lazy work, town of Merced.

    I am new to Merced, and was thrilled to see that they indeed had a beautiful new dog park. when I got my dog, I made a pack with her that she'd go all the time.. and I've kept it. I believe that most of the owners in Merced that come on a regular basis really care about their dogs and it's like a family almost. We are all excited to come and see that certain dogs are there ..and so are our dogs. I do not think that MDog is actively involved in the park as they should. When the dog poopie bags are empty it can take literally weeks for MDog to get someone to get the key and actually refill the empty dog bag things. It's hard enough to get some owners to "notice" their dog is POOPING.. and thus needs their attention to clean it up.. but when the bags are empty.. it's even harder. Some owners come and spend their time cleaning up @#@# that they should not have too. I will NEVER understand why some owners bring in unneutered or ill behaved dogs. We are trying to keep ours from having problems and they seem to 99 percent of the time the real "issues". How about Rescuing animals. There are rescues of every breed! Also, Keep your babies and young kids at home. Give me a break. Not all dogs are use to children or the noises they make... that goes for the teeny dogs.. we have a small dog park. I agree it's alot to ask that the big dogs ignore the biting etc of ill behaved little dogs.. the big dogs get blamed if one gets hurt. duh. My biggest concern is that owners bring their puppies into the park when they are obviously too young to have had all their shots. I wish there was a better way to ensure that every dog that enters has had all it's shots etc. Parvo is a dreaded disease and I think it should be taken more seriously. Merced dog Park is an outbreak just waiting to happen. I love the park, I go every night or so and my dog loves it. I think it'd be nice if the mdog associatyion would reach out to the owners for help with the park, ie: even the simplest things like refilling the poopie bags.. fundraisers or ideas... which they seem to be fine with only having the halloween thing and nothing else.. Take ideas or have some open meeting and actually let people know when and where and then actually be open to others ideas. Other than that... I love the park, appreciate Merced for having the parks, and my dog LOVES the park. We are so lucky to have the park to come to. I give it 4 big Woofs! Here's just a few photos of Noel and Stella's Friends!

    A little dirty, but a wonderful size with separate accommodations for large and small dogs.

    Please train your dogs not to jump on people. I like the park; however, not the surplus of poorly trained dogs.

    We let the "kids" run while we walk the track, or patrol for poop, or pull weeds along the fence.

    Came in on a random rainy day... I really wish it wasn't so small. People weren't lying about the…read moresmells being gnarly. The smell really punches you in the face when you walk in. However we all know why that is. After being there awhile you kinda just ignore it but it is very much still noticeable. The small dogs are allowed on both sides which is nice but my dog can be a jerk sometimes and pick fights with bigger dogs. So we had no choice but to stay on the small dog side. With that being said the small dog side is super small, but I guess it works for those dogs that have a hard time breathing in high temperatures, I feel like they can do better with supplying more toys on small side. I didn't know how much I would love the option to drink and let my dog roam free. Beer options are great we had a delicious Hazy. little to no seating. They should really run with this idea and open a much bigger place it's perfect for those days it's way too hot, cold or even rainy. Wouldn't go out of my way to visit but if I lived near I probably would.

    We likes Bark at first. The smell was not great but they've since managed that. We decided to…read morecancel our membership after management continued to allow aggressive dogs to visit. Even after we spoke to management about concerns, nothing changed. We recently learned of a dog fight that took place there, which resulted in one dog needing emergency medical services. Unfortunate.
