FENCED PARKS/FIELDS
(Please make sure that
your greyhound does not run loose with other dogs. Check the enclosure to make sure the
fence is not in disrepair in any sections, and check the gate to make sure it is shut
properly. Do not let your greyhound run when the weather is too hot. Heat exhaustion can
be fatal.)
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
Off of 148th Ave. (the south end, intersecting with 124th and 122nd. SE.), near Bellevue
Community College |
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 |
Cedar Heights Jr. High School

NOT ACCEPTABLE
Marymoor Park |
REASONS WHY MARYMOOR IS
NOT ACCEPTABLE FOR GREYHOUNDS
Marymoor Park is not fully and securely fenced. There are also many, many breeds of dogs
who run at Marymoor and some very busy roads nearby. |
| 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.

Joyces teaching methods consider the needs of the human learner as well as the dog.
Training techniques are based on establishing leadership (not to be confused with
dominance!). Her mission is to set up handler and dog for maximum success. They
teach using positive reinforcement only, rather than punishment. Joyce offers private
sessions in-home or at her facility, and classes in several locations. |
