Pawm Springs Dog Park

This place made my pups very happy! We were in the big dog side on nice Saturday and Sunday afternoons and there were lots of dogs and owners. For the most part, all the pups were well behaved and the owners paying attention, any scuffles we witnessed were stopped quickly. What I loved about this park was how big it was-​the pups could mingle with others if they wanted, but also get away and just sniff on their own too.
There is water feature, and although my dogs didn’t go in, they got wet when other dogs shook around them. There were also some muddy spots my pups did romp through… so I would suggest bringing a towel even if you know your dog doesn’t go swimming.
The only real issue was that by Sunday, a couple of the poop bag stations were out of bags, but there were bags in the others.
Both pups really enjoyed themselves and I suspect we will be back every weekend the weather allows.

Both Bella and myself thoroughly enjoy this dog park. Pawn Springs dog park is very well set up for both big and small dogs because they are separated by a fence. Bella is a large dog so we spend our time on that side of the park and let me tell you there is plenty of room for her to run play and do whatever she wants and when she gets a little too hot there’s a little pond with freshwater for her to go take a dip in. If you are located within 5 to 10 miles and have a dog that likes to play with others I highly recommend you stop Buy this dog park one weekend or weekday and give it a try.

Pros:
Shaded areas/​tables.
Trees to stand under
Showers
Cons:
Too small
Not enough to do
While I’m always excited to check out new parks for my pup to roam around in, I wasn’t the biggest fan of of Pawm Springs. I love the convenience of the place and love that it’s surrounded by more amenities, like a bathroom and other parks. However, the park itself is too small for my liking. The most my dog can do here is roam by the water, he’s under 6 months and isn’t much of a swimmer. The park isn’t paved at all for him to even know where to go.
My pup also got attacked by another dog, which isn’t much the others dogs fault as it is the owners.
The obstacle courses are far off in the corner and I feel like they could do so much more with the space in between.
Overall, its not bad. We’d return if we were in the area.

Very nice dog park. They have two sides; one for big dogs and one for small dogs. The side for big dogs has a big lake for them to swim in and cool down. I recommend going Saturday’s after 12 because there are more dogs to play with.

Wow, this dog park is amazing!!! The area for the large dogs is SUPER, SUPER spacious, with a little mini pond and lush, green grass and hurdles. For a dog park, it is also super clean! PUPPY PARADISE LET ME TELL YOU.
One of the things I love about this park is if your puppy isn’t comfortable socializing with the other big dogs, it’s easy to walk across the park and play frisbee with them at a more empty location — less overwhelming for the puppy, but with no fear of them running into the street. This park is THAT dang big.
I love puppies

I love this place. It was the first dog park I’ve been too and it was fun, especially for the two dogs I brought. It was a little annoying watching people let their dogs poo and then just walk away and not clean it up. Can’t do much when people just don’t care in this world. I liked the pond and how SPACIOUS this park was. Too bad I’m from Cali so I don’t have many chances to come here. A dog park isn’t at the top of my list of places to visit every time I come back to Texas :-)

I am all about this dog park! The small dog side (less than 25 lbs) is large enough for my puppy to run around and make some new friends. There is a covered area for the sunny days, and there is also a ramp for the dogs to run up and down. Parking hasn’t ever been an issue, and there is a dog washing station as you leave the gates.
I would caution against my fellow dog owners who have bigger dogs (26 lbs or more) for the big dog side. It seems like the dog owners on that side are more «relaxed» in the supervision of their dog (s). The dogs on that side are more definitely more aggressive, and other owners have told me their dogs have been unfortunately attacked/​injured by other dogs.
There is also a large walking loop (1 mile???) south of the dog park, if you would prefer to leash your dog for a walk instead.

My dog and I LOVED this park! We live close to downtown Houston, so there really aren’t too many large dog parks in the city for my dog to romp around freely. This park is HUGE! There is lots of space to run around and play fetch. My dog enjoys swimming and there is a nice and fairly clean pond for dogs to cool off. They have wash stations to hose off the pups, which is very helpful since my dog loves to roll around in the mud. There’s also some agility equipment.
The park is maintained very well and though not all owners were picking up after their dogs (one reason this park didn’t get 5 stars), there was a maintenance guy cleaning up the grounds.
One thing was obvious, though. This park is clearly meant for larger dogs. The small dog area is tiny in comparison and lot of small dog owners brought their dogs over to the large dog side and some scuffles did break out. This really isn’t fair to the bigger dogs who get a bad rap as a result. Some people also brought their kids, some of whom were not too great with unfamiliar dogs, which made me a little nervous. But other than that, most people we met there were friendly and we enjoyed the overall experience.
We will definitely be back… it’s worth the 30 minute drive!

I love taking my pups to this park where they can roam free and make friends! The park is spacious, especially for the larger dogs. There is also a nice sized area for the smaller pups to run around unbridled. My favorite part of this park is the wide deep pond for the pups to take a dip in during those hot summer days. I love watching my dogs frolic in the water. For pups who are in training and/​or are over achievers, there is an agility course available at the corner of the park.
Watch out for poo. Some owners don’t pick up after their pups.

I may be over exaggerating how much i like this park with 5 stars. But in comparison to the other dog parks i have visited with my pup, this one is BY FAR the best one in town.
First of all, this park is gigantic! And it has areas for both small and large dogs. The look and feel of this park is very nice and they continuously maintenance the park to keep it clean and looking good for the dogs (I know this because I have forgotten twice about this small note: they close the park for maintenance on Mondays so don’t make a trip on Mondays.)
The dogs at this park are always a lot of fun for my pup to play with and also the owners of the pets are great. I have felt very comfortable chatting with people here which is something I find hard to do at dog parks.
I love this park and go at least once per week. It’s in a great location because of the expansive amount of trails connected throughout the rest of the park property so you can go for a run before or after playing with the pups.

Excellent park and my dog loved having the open space and water to play with. Nice dog water fountain and shades as well. Will come regularly!

**Side note: apparently, my initial review wasn’t good enough to be seen by everyone. So I’m doing this again.**
I’ve been here dozens of times because we have three dogs and they need a little more room to play and romp. I liked that there was a big dog area with a little pond because my dogs love the water. I also liked that it’s separate from the little dog park.
However, having a separate park for big dogs and little dogs is just futile. The little dogs virtually have nothing over there so the owners bring them to the big dogs and problems ensue.
I don’t know what it’s been lately but the atmosphere has been really sour. Most of the owners are incredibly defensive and antagonizing (especially on the Facebook page). They make it less fun to be there. Then there are people who are vehemently breaking the rules.
I’ve seen so many people smoking, allowing kids to bring their bikes and skateboards in (when neither are allowed). Kids under the age allowed coming in and people bringing strollers.
I think my dogs have noticed the «off» atmosphere as well because they’ve been sticking close to us instead of interacting with other dogs like they used to.
Not coming back…

This dawg park is very nice! It has separate areas for big dogs and little dogs. It has a water feature and an obstacle course, as well as wide open spaces for the burning off some of that excess energy (too bad I can’t absorb any of it though).

Big dog park. My only wish is that there were more dog parks where I didn’t have to hop into a car and drive to.
The pond is pretty nice and our little pup actually liked running around the big dog area and jump in the water.
The sign says closed Mondays for cleaning, so keep that in mind before coming.

Our pup loved this dog park! Both the small dog and large dog areas are huge, though the large dog side was bigger, with the lake and all! I liked how the lake was pretty shallow since our pup can get scared of swimming, so it’s a good balance for him: P
I also liked the little agility section so our pup could practice doing some mini tricks, hehe. This place was pretty packed on a Sunday!

Pocky really liked this park a lot, so much that he even got in the water to cool himself off. (He doesn’t like water at all)
He was running all over the park. (They sure do have a lot of free space)
I do wish they would put up a sign (rules for puppies or have a puppy park) for owners who bring their puppy to the park. One guy was telling my sister and I that his puppy gets a lot of aggression because he is a puppy and he has gotten used it. That isn’t too good for the dogs who give it nor the owners who get blamed for it. It isn’t the dog nor the owner’s fault that puppies are born with a distinctive scent that separates them from dogs. That’s just how it is and
unfortunately most dog owners don’t even know that.
Besides the scent of the puppy; puppies aggravate dogs and that makes the dog very angry which makes them riled up and ready to fight. Puppy owners: I would take notice to this – because 9 times out of 10 it’s the puppy who starts the problem and not the dog.
***Thats a lesson every dog lover or owner should be aware of***
Anyways, we did have a good olé time. Pocky really enjoyed himself.

I come here at least one a week and my dog has a great time, perfect way to wear him out. Mostly everyone does a great job in picking up the poopy, my only complaint is that some dogs are aggressive and really shouldn’t be coming to the dog park until they learn how to behave or at LEAST have the owner actually watch them! I hate see in does people sitting and texting, totaling ignoring their dog, come on it’s your dog and responsibility please watch after him or her

The park was hard to find due to it being new, but if you call the sugar land parks and rec number they should be able to get you there of you can’t find it.
Once we found the place it was wonderful! Not a single problem except for trying to get our puppy back in the car to go home. She loved the pond! Very clean and plenty of doggy bag stations for people that forget the essentials. The hose off area at the exit was a nice touch but we didn’t bring extra towels this trip. We will next time :)

Sasha loves parks. So much to the point that she thinks every open car door is an invitation to go to one. it gets annoying. We go to Pawn Springs every chance we can get and we love it!
Granted, it’s not the biggest park in Houston, but it is nice and very well kept. There are poop bag dispensers, trash cans, water fountains for people and dogs, lounge seats around the swimming area, and big tables and benches under a large canopy. The park, like most, is split in half for big dogs and small dogs. The swimming area is big and well decorated, with dogs constantly jumping in and out, wading around or just drinking out of it. There is plenty of space for Sasha to run around either with me or with other dogs. There’s even an agility course complete with a dog walk, weave posts and hurdles (which are now broken. can someone fix that please!)
When it comes to the owners at the park, I have never had a bad experience. If anything, I’m always chatting with someone about their dog that’s playing with mine. I’ve also never had complaints about my baby, and she’s an 85 pound German Shepherd. People usually just want to pet her and ask me questions.
Whether you have three Shelties, two Great Danes or one German Shepherd, Pawn Springs is one of the best parks to take your babies to! Your best friend will be exhausted and most likely passed out from all the fun and excitement after spending time here.

Side note — This is my 100^th review! Woohoo. Alright moving on.
This place is beautiful! This is a great park. The grass is so nice! I love the dog parks in Houston and now this one. Did I say the grass was amazing? There was actual grass it was just so lush. There is so much wide open space for your pup to run wild. There’s a little agility area, doggy wadding place and there’s cool lounge chairs around the water. There’s also a nice tented area for the two legged folks.
I walked around a bit and it seemed pretty clean. I didn’t see any traces of dog poo anywhere. I’m going to guess the city of Sugar Land takes very good care of their parks because I saw 2 city workers doing some work and fixing something around the place. Another side note the city workers were really nice because I asked them to help me jump my car since the batter died and they were nice and helpful.
My friend met me there because he wanted to meet my pup and said there were walking/​biking trails near by. I can’t wait to go back and check out the trails and let Samuel run wild in the nice lush grass. Great job City of Sugar Land, great job.
