We love this centrally located small doggy park. MOST OF THE TIME people clean up after their dogs but not always. There seems to be plenty of people bringing extra bags, and we have not had problems with aggression in other dogs. It can get a little muddy in some spots but overall it's usually got 10 dogs there and is a good place to romp.
We take our Boston and Chihuahua to the park and usually have a good time. The Boston got bit by a Bernese Mtn dog last time and is now sick. If anybody has information about the Bernese we would appreciate it, just want to make sure it was up to date on it's shots and didn't pass something along. We're not upset or mad, just want to be on the safe side!
We have been taking our Shiba Inu to Rampart for alomst 6 months now with no problems. Until today. For what ever reason; most likley more aggressive dogs. About eight dogs attacked our Shiba. He wasn't even there for more than five minutes. I had to actually step in a break up the attack. I was very dissapointed that none of the other dogs owners stepped in to control their dog. But it might have just been a bunch of bad dogs. Either way I figure that we will be giving it one more shot before completely bailing out on Rampart.
This park is fine, but unlike the description, there is no real shade. It is basically an open, flat, fenced-off portion of the park. The mulch hills are nice. Needs a second in-out gate to eleviate bottle necks on weekends.
Can we say FABULOUS? The dogs got to run around and be stupid for a little over two hours with others like them, and the humans got to chat with other dog people. Everyone was kind and understanding, and even took care of their own dog's messes--and there was actually somewhere to put it when it was picked up!! We'll be going back MUCH more often!!
We are older adopted huskies and we absolutely love to go our favorite park at Rampart Dog park. If there are other huskies in park (usually the case) you can be sure to hear us talkin' to each other.
The new mulch is huge help with low spots and whoever brings all empty plastic bags for doo doo duty, THANK YOU.
