The dangers of dog parks!! Please read before deciding whether or not to take your greyhound to a dog park.
CITY |
PARK |
COMMENTS |
|---|---|---|
| BELLINGHAM, WA | Lake Padden Park 4882 Samish Way Bellingham, WA 98226 |
The training area marked behind the athletic field restroom facilities in southeastern part of the park in the area bounded by four (4) white posts marked "Dog Exercise Area"; bridle trails in the wooded portion of the Park west of Padden Creek Dam and Ruby Creek entrance into the Lake; and the trails in the south end of Lake Padden between the golf course power lines and trailhead off Samish Way. Dogs are required to be on a leash when on the around-the-lake trail. A dog water exercise area near the ballfield area is signed for dog training/exercise. Dogs are restricted to entering Lake Padden only at this area. |
BELLEVUE, WA |
Robinswood Park |
Two fenced fields. The larger corral has an improved fence but since other breeds run there, it is not an ideal place for greyhounds to run. The smaller field can be rented for exclusive greyhound use. |
| CENTRALIA,
WA (Recommended by Tonya Mackey) |
Centralia Borst Park Exit 82 off I-5 |
Centralia now has a fully fenced dog park. There are two fenced areas side by side. One side is for small breeds and the other is for large dogs. The nice thing is when you go into the gate, there is a small area for you and the dog. After you close the first gate then you go through a second gate to get into the play area. Kind of like the red barn (former GPI kennel) had in front so dogs would not get out. A lot of times the park is empty and free for a single family run. |
COVINGTON, WA |

that have to be checked, and watch out for a couple of holes for pole-vaulting) |

| TACOMA, WA | Rogers Park 3300 East L Street |
Use this one with caution as some aggressive dogs
and not-mindful owners have been frequenting this park lately. It is maintained by
volunteers and by Metro Parks. It's a good size (perfect for running and fetching). It has
two dog-proof gates and is totally fenced. There is a doggie water fountain, a bench for
sitting and poop bags. I wouldn't, however, recommend the park after it has rained (at
least for two days after). The park is in a low lying area so it can get muddy.
