Pebble Hills Dog Park

This is actually the first gated dog park I’ve been to. Are they anymore gated dog parks Unilocalers? Anyways, I had come here at night around 8:30 p.m. since I was in the area with family and my pup. I have a shih tzu/​daschund. She loves to run around and explore parks, but I guess we had come at a bad time.
The left side are for large dogs and the right side are for small dogs. Unfortunately, The large gated area is under construction. So my pup didn’t do too well with large dogs when both size dogs were together. I wanted to expose her to other dogs, but I guess bad timing lol.
The area could use some light posts inside the gated area to brighten the scene. It gets super dark and I think my cousin stepped on poop. Lol. Uh oh. Also, there’s barely any grass I guess that’s typical. Water fountain outside too. I believe the park closes around 9p.m. the people were friendly to talk to and explained the rules. I may bring back my pup when the park starts to separate size dogs. I believe it’s next week?

It is unfortunate that this is the only dog park not on Fort Bliss. El Paso seriously lacks dog friendly parks, and sadly this one isn’t that great.
Being the only park in the area, I have bringing my dogs here for 3 years. It was much nicer three years ago. The grass has not been maintained, and the entire park is ridden with dirt and rock patches. There is hardly any shade. This park has been open for several years, and they are just now starting to plant trees. Those trees, however, are not big enough yet to provide any shade. This park is split into two different size runs: one larger run for the bigger dog, and one not so much smaller run for the smaller dogs.
The doggie water fountain is located on the outside of the fenced in area. How much sense does that make? Every other dog park I have visited in other cities places the doggie water fountain on the INSIDE of the park, so the owners dogs can water their dogs while staying inside the fence. But I digress. that water only works ¼ of the time anyway.
There are only two benches per run. Yep, that is right. Only two. Way to go El Paso Parks and Rec. Be prepared to bring your lawn chair, and hopefully it doesn’t get pissed on.
Parking sucks too. The only place to park is along the curb. There is no parking lot. If the park is busy that day (usually in the last hour or two before dark), be prepared to walk a ways.
The park has a set of rules posted, but they are rarely followed. Too often are there owners with über-​aggressive dogs that just refuse to leave, or people who don’t pick up after their dogs. Poop bags are available (sometimes), yet most don’t even use them. Be careful where you step!
As much as I dislike this park, it is the only one in town. EP needs to step up, and open up some more dog friendly parks. Hopefully they will be nicer and better maintained than this one.

I’m still a relatively new dog owner, so I do not know exactly what a good dog park should or should not have. I can say that my Miniature Schnauzer Ms. Barkley loves to go to this park. She knows as we start to get closer, and starts to jump around the car « Unilocaling». This particular park is divided in two, the left side is for large dogs, while the right is for small dogs. There is a main gate, then secondary gates for both sizes of dogs. Out front is a water fountain for both Human owners and their four legged friends! Within the enclosed park areas, are trash cans for rubbish, a poop bag dispenser (please use them Humans, nothing worse then running around playing with your dog and stepping in someone else’s mess), semi shaded bench, non shaded bench, and a few obstacle installations for those trying to teach an old dog new tricks. We have come here several times, and I have always met the nicest dog owners. It’s fun and exciting for her, and I also enjoy time spent here.

Since El Paso seriously lacks dog-​friendly areas, the dog park is kinda the only place we can take our dog. It’s separated into two sides: one for small dogs and one for big dogs. There’s almost no shade which is really bad especially for the El Paso weather. They just planted two trees last year but they are still too small. As for seating possibilities for us humans: there are two benches on the big-​dog-​side and one of them has no shade-​cover.
The water fountains outside the fence don’t work and often there are no poop-​bags left so make sure to bring your own bags.
It’s also just dirt so don’t expect a nice grass-​area… Typical for El Paso I would say.
All in all, our dog loves it because she gets all her energy out since so many people visit the park. Some even bring their own camping chairs because there’s not enough benches, and in the afternoon around 5pm, there’s a group of people that meets there on the regular. They’re like their own little community but they are very friendly to new people that show up.

People need to learn to clean up after themselves and pets, it’s decent since it’s one of the only in this part of town

Clean, fenced in areas. Newer park so the trees aren’t fully grown and doesn’t offer any shade. But it is a nice area.

Nice fenced in dog park. A little out of the way, but it’s in a nice neighborhood area. Very clean. Separate areas for little and BIG dogs. A few jumps for the dogs, and benches for the peeps.
There was snow on the ground the day we visited (shocking, I know) but from the looks of it I think the park is dirt… no grass.
