    This park was really great. Spacious. Water fountain. Double fence to enter and exit. I just don't get people. People make dog parks have issues. Why are you bringing your small children to a DOG PARK to be knocked over and jumped on. Even a well behaved dog can get rowdy at a park meant for play time. Last week we decided to end our visit early because some parents were letting their toddler run around the park basically alone with a bunch of dogs they don't know. Also please take your dogs off the leash before entering the park. It makes the dog feel less anxious being greeted by all the dogs inside. Overall it was an ok experience. I cant really fault the park because of some people I don't agree with. I hope I can come back and have a better time. Also the location isn't my favorite.

    I wanna bark in your yard

    I had to paws to see if that was the real name. That's a ruff name for a park. Actually it's super cute, even if the pups poodle all over your Pumas. I guess they're Poo-mas now. Your dog does not have to be on a leash here! How awesome is that! So fur, I've never seen any dog kill any other dog either. Yelp HQ are cool and I seem to have friends there now, but they don't always actually read what they're deleting. I've been to this dog park probably more than any other dog park on earth (and yes, Starlight has been here), but some very bored person flagged it (incorrectly) and they deleted it for "not being a first-hand experience" (incorrectly). I forgive them. Not only do I come here often (I play soccer in LaSalle and half my friends have dogs and I should really charge for dog walking since I've done it so many times now, and this is my favourite place to walk dogs because it's right by the gorgeous river and lake), but Starlight has been here too, and amazingly she's not afraid of dogs. But she is afraid of Lakes. Anyway, as I said before: This is a tiny little doggy park in LaSalle, right by the Niagara River where it meets Lake Erie, where I play football (soccer) on the worst field in town. If you need a place to let your doggy run free, then you're barking up the right tree! The park and the views of the lake are paws-itively adorable! Remember to scoop up your poop! And your doggy's poop! And if you're cute, sell it on E-Bay to gross people. If it were full of extensively-covered Muslim females, it'd be the Burqayard, but it's actually for everyone in any form of dress. Especially dogs. And Starlight.

    Absolutely Love the bark yard! If you live in the city you know how hard it is to get your dog the exercise it needs. I have a small backyard that doesn't seem to do justice for my border collie/cattle dog pup named Abby. The rules: The off the leash policy is great so the dogs can socialize and chase each-other for hours! Which is much longer than I can run with her! :-p Make sure your dog is dog friendly. There's nothing worse than a grumpy pup to ruin everyone's fun. Lastly, be kind and don't leave the poop behind! Bags and disposables are provided for a reason! The layout: 2 different spots for big and little dogs. A watering hole that is always on!! Thank god. Dog lovers everywhere come here which is great. I've gotten a lot of good tips and advice from other go owners. Great way to meet new people who have the same interests as you too!

    I have 4yr old blue tick who took right too the Barkyard. She runs and runs. Plays with all manner of dog breeds happily. We both go home very happy

    Coming from the south, turn right onto porter then left on dar. The barkyard is on your right about 1/2 mi down, parking directly across from the dog park to your left. Has two sections. One for dogs under 10 lb and another for bigger dogs. Ample space, has water fountain inside the park, benches and plenty of trees for shade. Across from the water. Breezy. The fence i'd say is 4ft so if you have a dog that jumps, this isn't ideal. Has a hideout area with a cover. Fairly clean. No play structures

    From the large dog area looking towards small dog pen.

    We have been to Glen Park a few times. But now that our son is running around, going to the park is…read morealways a new adventure. After having some ice cream, we went for a quick walk throughout the park. This park really is great. It is a little small but that also makes it so nice. No need for maps or worries of getting lost, it's perfect for a nice walk. My son loves looking for all the wildlife especially if there are any ducks or fish. Luckily for him, there are plenty of ducks around here. Another nice thing about this park is that it is very scenic for photography. There were a few different groups there doing what looked like senior pictures or photos before an event. Whether you're looking for a nice walk, scenic backdrop or just a quiet place to sit on a bench and think, this park has it all.

I am amazed at how restful and beautifully maintained it is. The flowers were welcoming, the small waterfall enchanting, the trails curious and winding, and the wildlife amusing. I felt more relaxed and grounded after my visit than I have in a long time. The only negative was that someone was smoking weed on a park bench and the odor instantly turned me off. I'm sure smoking is not allowed, but I was chagrined that in this little section of The Garden of Eden someone would assume to make the place smell like a stoner's living room.

Like I said, I'm looking forward to coming there very very soon and I will post what I think

The beach is still inaccessible there are giant cement blocks so it's not a straight shot down for a wheelchair and the grass around them is very uneven and hilly like ground for a wheelchair to go over and I got stuck in the rocks and had to ask people to help push me out, then on the way back to the walk way (video I posted) my wheelchair was going to flip. There are small simple things that they could have been done, I've been to other beach's that have strips over the sand/ rocks that wheelchairs can ride over. The building looks nice they added a small golf course. To me it seems like all they did was build the restaurant and build up the rock walls especially around the beach.
