Darree Fields Dog Park

there’s been a water main leak/​break that that causes two major puddles to form in the middle of the large breed area. I’ve been going here for about 6 months and the problem has always been present. My puppy drank out of a puddle (I tried to stop her, she’s fast) and she ended up catching a nasty parasite that resulted in $ 250 of vet bills… the regular attendees are very nice and responsible dog owners, but in the interest of my dog’s health, I can’t see myself returning until the issue of standing water has been addressed.

It’s a nice place but Impossible to find if you use GPS. At the roundabout look for the Darree Fields sign and take that road… And keep going and going past the water tower. Look for the white picket fence. My only complaint is there is absolutely no shaded area for adults so don’t go in the afternoon!

A big ol’ rectangle wedged behind some softball fields. I take Fonzie to this park for his exersice mainly because it is the closest to where I live. 99.9% of the owners are great and attentive and I personally have never had any problems with other owners. It was a little muddy in the spring but has since dried up into a big dust bowl in June. There is water and an area for small dogs too. It’s pretty much a no-​frills big field and it looks like they are adding on to it soon.

Well, if you’re basing a visit on location only, then this is decent for the part of town.
Some people are willing to drive all over for a «good» dog park, others base more on location and less on what the park has to offer.
Overall this park is just ok. They do have separate areas for large and small dogs, however there aren’t enough dogs that visit this park on a regular basis to make separation viable.
They do have a water source at the park which is nice. The area that the dogs have to run around is a fair amount smaller than most of the comparable dog parks.
There are a couple of picnic tables and benches which are nice.
It can be difficult to find the specific area if you’ve never visited, you just need to keep driving.

My hubby and I found this dog park for our yellow lab/​english setter a few months back. After doing some searching online for a local dog park, we found this one close to our home. Its about a 15 minute drive from where we live and our dog loves being there. The area is gated and there are two areas for dogs. The larger area is for the medium to large dogs where there is a smaller area for small dogs. Everyone that shows up here watches their dogs closely and its always interesting to talk to them and ask them about their 4-​legged family member (s). Great place to take your dog if you live in the Dublin/​Hilliard area!
