UPDATE REGARDING DOG PARKS:
January 2020: Denver Parks & Recreation (DPR) has gone through the first round of dog park proposals and selected Quality Hill Park, Rosedale Park, and Washington Park to move on to Phase II, Community Outreach.
Denver Parks and Recreation wants to hear from our community. Please see the survey below and provide your input:
Tell us what you think about a potential dog park at these sites by taking an online survey! (opens link to DPR’s online survey, also found here https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/XXF9R85).

November 2019
We know many in the neighborhood have been asking about dog parks, so we are pleased to share this Master Plan Technical Update from Denver Parks & Recreation. See below for the update from DPR. Based on our overview, while our neighborhood is identified as a “service gap” this report does not show plans for dog parks near us. At the end of the report is a process for proposing dog parks, should that be of interest to you.
From DPR: Thank you for your interest and involvement in helping Denver Parks and Recreation (DPR) complete the Technical Update to the Dog Park Master Plan.
After reviewing community feedback and evaluating best management practices in dog parks throughout North America, the final plan document, along with the accompanying community-driven pilot process for proposing new dog park locations, are available to the public.
