The dog park is located at the west end of Horsetooth Road. It is located in the undeveloped Southwest Community Park along Spring Creek. The site is a fenced 2-3 acre area where dogs are permitted to run without leashes. Other regulations are posted at the site.
All animal feces are to be picked up by the dog handlers.
Bags and trash cans are provided. This popular park was developed in cooperation with the Larimer County Humane Society and gives dog owners a chance to exercise their dogs legally off leash. Water should be brought by pet owners as Spring Creek is very unreliable as a water source. Guidelines Southwest Dog Park is extremely popular with the people of Fort Collins and the surrounding area. Between 30 to 50 people visit the park each day to let their dogs run about unleashed and to socialize with other dogs.
