Heritage Park Dog Off-Leash Area

This is an excellent resource for letting your dog run free and interact with other dogs. I love the small dog park for my guy because he is a little unnerved by larger dogs.

Love it more now that the paths are concrete instead of gravel. Two areas, one for smaller dogs (if you choose to use it) and one for larger dogs. Water stations for the pups at the entrance. Plenty of parking, just be aware blackbob is close at the writing of this so you have to use the entrance off Pflumm.

Really enjoyed my times here, and the dogs loved the huge size to roam and run. Concrete paths for humans to walk in circles, too. Great people to chat and enjoy the fresh air and scenery. I left behind my dog training device which I had just bought. I was disappointed the next day when I didn't see it on the bench where I had left it. Then, upon leaving I noticed it tied near one of the exit gates to my joyful surprise. If you are the one who found it, I am most grateful for your integrity. Dog people are the best.

Great place. Benches located around the concrete walking paths as well as poop bags and trash cans. Lots of off leash running areas for hunting breeds that need exercise. Pond for swimming, great for 100 degree days to get cooled off and burn off some energy. It is a muddy entry and exit so bring towels to wipe them down before getting into your car. Drinking fountain at entry for pets and people. Toilets available at entry. Small dog area is separated for people who have tiny fur babies. Overall, great place. Two items missing are benches in shaded areas and an area to wash dogs off.

This is a wonderful dog park, perhaps one of the best dog parks in the area. Most owner have good dogs that they watch and are very vigilant. Like any dog park, you still get the bad owners with dogs that cause harm to other dogs, so just be aware of that. I have never had an issues with my two dachshunds because they stay very close to me. Lots of bigger dogs want to chase them because they are small, which isn’t a problem because they just want to play. The loop in the park is great and we really enjoy the trial, there are multiple waste stations along the trail, and the park is generally very well kept and stocked with bags. I believe it is closed two times a week for maintenance according to the hours sign. The pond is pretty murky but I feel like that is a Kansas standard. It is pretty overgrown with algae this time of year but early summer is great and my dogs enjoy playing in it. The bathrooms are also pretty nice, and a newer addition. I remember when it was only a portapotty. So it is a big plus to have that. There is also always water and multiple bowls for the dogs to drink from. Overall 10/10
