I was looking for a dog park in the area to take my pooch Shadow and came upon this gem. Shadow is…read morepredominantly around humans and I want him to get some animal interaction to socialize him. The park is amazingly big with plenty of room for dogs to run around freely, meet and greet, and play with other dogs. There is a small dog area, a large dog area, and an agility area. There are benches and water fountains in each area. The large dog area has pools in it for dogs to get wet. I do wish there was one in the small dog area however I don't mind going in the large dog area so that my Shadow can enjoy and cool off. The agility area has a few obstacles that pets can run and jump on. The areas are large enough for you to get some steps in, sit and watch your pets, or play with them. While we were there two other dogs and I met some very nice dog owners. I will definitely be taking Shadow at least once a week.

Great dog park! A lot of friendly dogs and owners. Even some agility-type structures.read more

Small dog area to the left, area for the big dogz on the right, double gated entry to prevent any Great Escapes. Inside Oakwood Dog Park they've got pine chips laid down and LOTS of space and trees for doggie nirvana! There's also some bowls and water if your pooch gets thirsty. As for the clientele, most everyone was pretty well-behaved outside of a couple of over-excited canines. There's wasn't much nipping or territorial behavior and my friend's smallish beagle got along fine even with the bigger ones. They've even got some lawn chairs for owners to lounge on and a sizable parking lot. If you've got a doggie, great space to visit, even on a hot sunny day with all the tree cover. So come on down and visit Oakwood Dog Park, just watch out for the occasional land mines left behind by negligent doggie owners....

It is easy to locate with two handicap parking spaces at the main entrance and numerous other spots further down the road. The road through the park is paved. We entered the dog park through the side entrance. Both entrances have a double fence making it easy to leash and unleash your dog and prevent escapees. It seems most people bring their dogs around 5:30/6 pm weekdays. We are looking forward to attending when more dogs are here. The park has equipment, toys, water, and waste stations. The park was clean without holes and dog poop. Overall, we had a good experience here and look forward to returning!

TLDR: Dog boarding during the day and indoor dog park plus bar in the evening. Excellent customer…read moreservice. Ample space to sit, stand, and play. Attentive dog owners and staff. Amazing choice of music at a reasonable volume. Reasonable temp, on the warmer end in the summer. I heard about West Street Dog from a family member and was excited to give it a try. I didn't see a parking lot so I paid (~$1.50) for street parking. Street parking is free after 6 pm. There were several street parking spots available. West street dog is easy to locate and lists specials on a sign out front. When we walked in, we were immediately greeted by two employees sitting at the front. They welcomed us and walked us through all the details since it was our first time. Save time by downloading the app (required) and filling out the contract in advance. Bring your dog's vaccination records at your first visit. One time visits to use the off-leash area is $10. They also have a monthly membership option. They keep your card on file for the off-leash section charges, the bar is separate. To use the leashed section is free. The bar is double-sided so you can order from the leashed and off leash sides. We primarily hung out in the off leash section. I like the set up since it provides ample room for dogs to play and customers to sit and watch their dog. The middle section is turf where dogs can use the bathroom. They ask that you clean up after your dog goes #2. Then an employee rinses the area with a hose. During our visit an employee hung out in the play area to watch the dogs. The employees here definitely love dogs. My dog received so much attention and had a blast. The dogs seemed to get along well. When some became rowdy, an employee gently separated them or sprayed them with water. We visited on a Friday evening and there were about 15 dogs. Only thing I didn't like is that it smelled like pee, which I understand is a challenging smell to combat. We can't speak on the dog boarding as we only tried the bar and off-leash area. Overall, we had a great time and recommend this park to others!

Google/ Yelp Review: I entrusted West Street Dog with the…read morecare of my dog, and he unfortunately sustained a serious injury while in their care that now requires surgery. After the incident, I repeatedly requested information and the video footage the business claims supports its account. Although they have referenced this footage, it has not been provided. Instead, I was told they determined there was no negligence on their part and that they would not reimburse any veterinary expenses. I am deeply disappointed not only that my dog was injured while under their supervision, but also by how the situation has been handled since. Rather than transparency, I have received shifting explanations, refusals to provide requested materials, and a denial of responsibility without access to the evidence they reference. My dog's veterinarian has confirmed that surgery is medically necessary, which has been both emotionally and financially devastating. While I understand accidents can happen, I cannot accept the lack of accountability and transparency when a pet is seriously injured in a business's care. Based on my experience, I do NOT recommend this business.

I do agree with another poster that the shape of the playground makes it difficult to keep an eye on your child. Otherwise, it is great.
