    Mt. Airy Dog Park is so great that we even found our dog there! While dogless, we attended our friends' dog's birthday party (R.I.P. Bowser). We were having a great time enjoying the company of dogs in general when we became acquainted with a lady who had been foster parenting a puppy for the week. He immediately had us smitten with him, and the lady let us know there'd be an opportunity to adopt him later... Two years later, we constantly come back to the place we found our dog and enjoy our time there immensely. A strong sense of community serves as the backbone of the dog park, with its patrons taking great care of the park. It's an unspoken rule that if your dog does his duty in the park, you do your duty as his owner (clean it up! what were you thinking??). Bags neatly tied to the fence serve as a means to do so if you forgot to bring one. A much needed re-do of the landscape has made it even more enjoyable, though owners should watch for two things: if it just rained heavily, avoid going for a few days. Second, if it's Winter, take a bathroom break BEFORE going to the park: restrooms are closed the entire wintry season.

    huge large dog side, muddy top when wet due to overuse of hilltop and tree cover - grass thick on slopes.

    Looks to be a picnic area converted to a dog park. There were signs asking for donations, but given how money was I would be very concerned to help out management. They spent a lot of money on building a new covered picnic area outside of the dog area and fencing, but forgot the most important part of any dog park - rolls of bags in a covered dispenser! As a result there is little poop pickup. Some patrons do care and tied plastic grocery bags to the fence. I didn't want to touch the bags because they were wet and I could see holes. No one was using them or picking up while I was there. A commercial bag dispenser should be at the gate next to a trash can and most importantly at the start of the path in the parking lot. There was poop every 6ft on the way in. My dog would not run because it didn't want to step in land mines. There was no where I could stand without seeing at least 6 piles. It's well past time to get the community together for complete poop cleanup and to post a sign telling people to tell other patrons to pick up if they miss/ignore when a dog drops - patrons just need a posted norm. This works where I live without a hitch. GET RID OF THE SHELTER OUTSIDE THE DOG PARK! It should be illegal to put your dig inside the fence unwatched with no person with a leash incase there is a dog fight. Dog fights happen. The shelter needs to be inside the large dog side period. a small bus stop shelter is all that is needed on the small dog side. NOT TO MENTION THIS IS WHY NO ONE WAS PICKING UP POO - they were on phones outside the park and not in control of their dogs! Fencing is very costly and I have never been to a dog park with fences this high. They are normally about 3-4ft. The idea is that your dog should be well behaved, not an escape artist, or have a high prey drive - if you are going to a public dog park. I guess this means that if you can't control your dog, this park is a great place for you.....and perhaps deer would stay out too?...I guess.... The space is a single hill so dogs/humans mostly run on very the narrow flat top and there is no grass left. It was mud due to use intensity and the heavy tree cover. The fenced area is very large which is really awesome, but dogs weren't using it unless humans walked to the fence. If you are disabled or elderly, its steep and there are no sidewalks. Perhaps most of the benches and tables should be relocated from the top of the hill to encourage owners to explore further. What we loved was that there were agility courses in both parks. We wish they were closer, so we could use them it is a very long walk to get to the one in the large dog area because it is a very long walk to the gate in the first place. Its just not a great park of you are elderly or disabled and I couldn't physically get to them. The small dog park was about perfect. It was not too small for dogs to run. Small dogs like to run and often cities make small dog parks too small so they can't. Yeh, cincy! The small dog side was mostly flat with less trees, so grass cover was great and I could get around more easily. Unfortunately there were no other small dogs, so we didn't use that side. There were only 6 dogs mid-weekday and they a were all large, so we went to the big dog side. They had fresh water for dogs, hurray for that too.

    I took my one year old newfy pup to the dog park for the first time and he had a blast! Being our…read morefirst time in a dog park, I was a little nervous because I didn't know what to expect or what the rules were. Luckily, everyone I encountered at the dog park was super friendly and willing to give me some "pro-tips" on the park. The space itself was HUGE! Plenty of space for the 30-ish dogs present to run and play. The grass was well grown and maintained; there were benches for owners to sit and even a dog-water-fountain. I have a large dog, but I did notice a separate area for "small" dogs. The one negative thing I will mention is there are two mild-sized "hills" in the grassy area which creates a blind spot between you and your dog (if they run over to that specific area of the park). I can't wait to go back and I know my dog, Clifford, can't wait either!

As such, a motor vehicle permit is required to park. A day or yearly pass may be purchased. Yearly passes are valid at any of the Great Parks parks. The dog park has seperate, off leash play areas for small dogs, large dogs, and an agility course. There are dual gate systems, at each play area. These gates help prevent dogs from escaping the fenced in areas. Though people should still be vigilantly watchful about the dogs around them when exiting and entering. Bags for cleanup are available. Signs are posted prohibiting plastic pools. They explain that the prevention is for health reasons. In general, the park seems to be well maintained. In the small dog area, dogs may be seen from anywhere inside the fence. The area is still large enough for small dogs to receive ample exercise. There is a covered seating area for people. There is also a doggy water fountain. The large dog area is for dogs greater than 22 pounds. The area is off leash as well. The large dog area is accessed through the agility area. It is a longer area that runs the length of the agility and small dog areas. It seems like it may be hard to keep up with/ keep an eye on your dog there. The large dog area was much busier than the small dog area. Our puppy is about a pound away from being in the large dog area. I think it may be overwhelming to him. Other than to cross into the large dog park, nobody was in the agility area. The agility equipment only takes up a small fraction of the area. The rest seems to be a waste of space. It would be nice if they created a medium size dog area with all the unused space.

Right across the way is the less busy one for those people who have dogs who are a bit anti social. There's water for the dogs and trash bags go pick up poop. My small complaint is the dog owners who go here. A lot of them let their dogs physically bite or swipe in a non playful ways and others do not pick up their dog's poop. Besides those two complaints I continue to bring my dog here because she loves running around and making friends.

Needless to say, the location of this park causes floods every now and then when the Little Miami rises but it's wonderful when it's open. The dog park is split into 4 locations. Two big/medium fields, one field for smaller dogs under 22lbs and across the street is a small fenced area if your dog is being unruly and needs a time out by themselves. For the most part people clean up after their dogs but we do usually come across some piles, unfortunately. That's the only reason I'm knocking this park a star. There are a few boxes with poop bags but they're widespread. It'd be nice to have more bag boxes. Each big field has a few benches and a water fountain. As you leave, you'll find one more water spicket to wash off with. Sometimes this park can get suuuuuper muddy. Pro tip: add yourself to the Otto Armleder Dog Park FB group to get updates from other dog parents about field conditions.
