I love this park
5

Sometimes I go when it's cold and we have the place to ourselves. Our dog runs laps around the huge park and is very happy. Even on a warm Saturday, the park is not too crowded. I have found only considerate, friendly owners in this neighborhood. I drive from Denver because Denver dog parks are too busy and dangerous.

Great Park, but....

It is very important that small dogs have a separate area to play. My small dog and another's small dog were attacked by a big dog. Both small dogs were VERY friendly. Now, at least mine is traumatized by big dogs. He's a little guy...only 6 lbs. Even the friendliest big dog could easily knock him down!

Great Park!

This is a great park! Very close to my house and has a ton of running space for my dog. They recently dumped a new layer of clay/dirt mixture to help with the stickers and teh ant holes. In a field of dirt though, and with all this rain, it is simply nature that weeds will grow that create stickers.

As far as small dogs/large dogs...all dogs need to learn to socialize!!! When you bring your dog, don't keep it on the leash if you know your dog is already friendly. Sometimes being on a leash makes the dog feel restricted that it can not protect itself and therefor forces the dog to react more aggressively. If it is your first time to the park and your dog has not ben socialized with other dogs, I suggest that you enter the gated area and ask another dog owner if they could help you socialize your dog. If owners are nervous, their dogs will be as well! Trust me! I've been that owner and I believe I know how to help!

Don't worry about bringing a water dish - there are plenty of bowels around and a water fountain. Please be kind and clean up after your dog if you come! Also, there are containers for dog owners to bring plastic bags for everyone to share, so please bring your old grocery bags. If your dog loves balls, there are plenty laying around everywhere. Hope to see you there!

NEW! NO MORE STICKIES

This is a great new park, fenced in with benches and friendly dogs from all around. The old park wasn't fenced and there were lots of stickies around. NO MORE! Great park overall and very close to my house!

New and Improved

The park is great. I'm not sure what the one star review was all about. The people park is still under construction. The dog park looks to be nearing completion. They have planted trees for shade. Benches and water available. Nice size. Surface is the same as a ball park (clay and dirt) to cut down on dust. My dog likes to run on it better than the sand at
Stapleton. The double gate entrance to the park is pretty large. This might be for small dogs to have a place to play.

*** NEW PARK DESIGN***

They are re-designing this park! It is huge now, fenced in, and is all dirt! It even looks like they are building shaded picnic bench areas! About time Green Valley Ranch had a real dog park of its own!

I think SMALL DOGS and BIG

I think small dogs should be in one area and big dogs in another. So this way the big dogs don't eat the small dogs for lunch and dinner. This is a big problem with my dog! That is why I think big dogs and little dogs should be in different play pins.
