My dog loves to come to this park as he has so many doggie friends he looks forward to and they all play well together. There is plenty of room for your fur pups to run around and release their energy out. I usually come every day as it's a reward for my dog to come and he's a been a better dog since I've been coming here. The adults are all wonderful from around the south windsor area.

We were a little surprised to see the gate and fence in the small dog area badly mangled. Not sure if that was vandalism or vehicle damage, but it looks terrible. One other thing bothered me a lot, and that was the crabby self appointed guardian of the small dog area that cross-examined us the minute we entered the pen. Her shockingly rude and inappropriate behavior left us flabbergasted. It seems that keeping our dog leashed rubbed her the wrong way. Lady, who are you to sit there like the Queen of Sheba sitting on her throne and have the audacity to tell us what to do? Lady, first of all - you don't know our dog, and second of all - we don't know the other dogs, so what makes you think you have the right to talk down to us like a kindergarten teacher admonishing her kids for putting the yellow crayons in with the reds? What makes you think you have the right to tell us (and I quote exactly word for word) "maybe you shouldn't be here". Other than that, we had a very nice time.

Without this sign I would never know there was a dog park in this area. This location is a bit strange. This is located behind a school. Well, the school is no longer active. St. Brigid St. Augustine Partnership School has been closed for almost five years. The rear of the former school has a nice sized dog park. It is fenced with the rules posted on the outside of the fence. The rules are pretty standard. My pup and I were the only ones here. The park is divided into two parks, one is for little dogs, which is where we were and the other is for larger dogs. Jude had such a fun time running around, and of course sniffing every single corner. There are a lot of wood chips all over the park, which undeniably ended up all over Jude's hair, and eventually all over my car. There was a bench which I sat at, and he came under, once he was ready for some shade. The West Hartford Dog Park is a nice park to let your dog run around and play.

There's not much to it, but if you need to exercise your high energy / young pup and you don't want to drive all the way to Canton, Glastonbury, Wethersfield or Rocky Hill (dog parks where we typically go), bring a chuck it, a bowl, and water and you should be able to tire him/her out at this park. Lots of wood chips cover the surface of the dirt, there are poop bags in a dispenser after you come into the entrance, and loads of old tennis balls can be found lying around the ground. I just wish there was another large garbage bin inside the fenced in area of the park instead of just one right outside the entrance. I went for a second time today with Momo and both times I met the loveliest people with friendly dogs. There's also a separate fenced area for smaller dogs. We'll be coming here more often since it's so convenient and easy to access.

It was a warmer December Saturday, following some heavy days of rain when we set out. Not knowing what slop we might be subjecting ourselves to we decided to be merry and Howled Holiday Carols all the way, even over a river and into woods. GPS got us the and yes, set off was the Park in some woods. Parking roughed gravel and wet ruts. There was the FOCDP within a beautiful wooded canopy of pine and leafed out deciduous trees. A smaller fenced in space for 25 pounders or less including some play scape. The space for the 25 pound or greater whoppers a larger wooded compound. Why do I like the wooded space? Warmer weather - more shade. Cooler weather - less direct exposure to wind. Slop weather - the forest space provides a natural sponge and a source of base material constantly being added. Of course, the trees added a wild feel for the fury visitors to enjoy Our Fury owner bridges into both areas, not too small and not too large. So we enjoyed visiting both areas and the social time with other friendly Pups and their Human Pets. Gladly both areas were fairly dry and not a swamp of mud. Seal of approval EARNED! FOCDP, acronym needed so my Fury Owner doesn't hear me pronouncing "Dog Park". Anyway FOCDP easily earned a 5 Star rating.

It took me a month or so to come to this realization, but the other users suggested I do so without being nasty and small-minded, and I appreciate the caring community that has grown around this space. I am having my dog trained to be less aggressive (and learning to play my own part more effectively). Eventually the trainer (Julie from Working K-9, an amazing boarding and daycare place) will come to the park with us and once she approves my dog's behavior, we'll be back. Almost all of the people who bring dogs to this park are careful and respectful. The nice thing about having two separate areas is that if you run into one of the few owners who permit bad behavior, you don't have to confront him or her ... you can move to the other side. Yelp is about the park (as a "business") -- not about the dogs and owners (the "customers"). X.X's review is a violation of Yelp's Terms of Service. I note that nobody has voted for it, but I think we should do more as a community to support each other. We should not support attacks on an individual in public forums, particularly one of our model citizens: he started the chat group, bring gallons of water every day in winter, picks up everyone else's poop; can describe in detail every interaction his dog has with other dogs, and works constantly to reinforce good behavior in his dog. I have reported X.X.'s report to Yelp as a Terms of Service Violation and hope you will as well. If you know X.X., please ask him or her to edit the personal attacks out of the review, and let me edit those references off this one. Thank you!

The grass side is bigger, ~ 1/2 acre. The feet of some of the larger dogs (30+ lb) seem to be irritated by the gravel. Usually people won't stay after dusk but both R lit, the gravel side w/ more. There R poop bags & trash can in each side but I always bring & use my own bags (they used to run out occasionally). U can drive or walk across the foot bridge from Deerfield St by Sirum Automotive. There's always plenty of parking, unless there's more than one softball game. [There R sometimes 2 at once :( The city needs arrange their timing better] Everyone always gets a spot even if they have to park on the entry road. If It has rained, usually everyone is in the gravel side bk they're worried their dog will get in a mud puddle (not me). There's usually several tennis balls & a pull toy laying around. When dogs come is kind of random. There's usually 3-5 dogs, but I've seen as many as 9 total. My dog & I have been there for up to an hr by ourselves & he doesn't want do anything but wait for others or sniff outside :( As long as it's not SUPER cold (below 30°) or currently raining, there's usually at least a couple there at the more common times (3 pm - dusk).

There was MDC Police that patrolled the area when I was there. Parking was plentiful when we went on a beautiful spring weekday. There were clean porta potties onsite.

There were two trails; 3.4-mile loop red trail and 2.0-mile loop yellow trail. We started off with the gravel yellow trail that has a slight incline. Then we got onto part of the red loop which was near the bridge overlooking the water. We saw a couple of deer in the woods, geese, and turtles in the water. This is where we walked on pavement. Some of the trees were marked by type. The trail was busy with walkers and bikers. Overall, I really enjoyed the hike/walk and can't wait to go back.
