Pooch Pines Dog Park

Located in Okeeheelee Park, its a nice sized dog park separated by dog’s size. As Lulu is tiny but fierce we ventured into the under 30 lb dog park and she automatically took off to play.
We were easily there for two hours as more of our doggy friends showed up and she was able to race (the terrier in her can’t seem to get enough of run time) and roll around in the grass.
The variety of dogs and the size of the park makes it nice as dogs are not constantly bumping into each other (unless intentional for invitations to run) and aren’t over powering the space making it hard for the humans to walk as well.
Which brings me to the path that is around the grassy area which the dogs are playing on for the most part. Lots of benches for both doggy and owner to rest on.
I can always tell when Lulu is ready to go as she comes and sits next to me on the bench and we people/​dog watch for a bit before we head home.

This dog park is really nice. Lots of grass and room to play. You do have to understand that all walks of life are going to come here. It is a pretty popular park. I have encountered many nice, friendly people here but have also had someone yell profanity at me because I stopped their dog from fighting with mine. After that incident my dog seems to get very anxious and doesn’t like going to the park anymore which is a shame. They should open the third side for calmer, perhaps older dogs.

Response from my dog“I get so excited when Mommy drives me to pooch pines; I get to hang out, play with dogs my size and cool off in shaded areas while my mom relaxes and watches… and after all of that a bath before I go home. I love this place woof”

My family has been bringing our dog to Pooch Pines for close to 5 years now and we don’t have anything negative to say.
The park is well maintained, cleaned often (you can tell they care about keeping it pristine!) and sometimes you’ll see police officers checking tags to make sure the pooches are up-​to-​date on their vaccinations. That’s comforting!
Two sides to the park — one for little and one for big dogs. My girl is bigger (although she’d love to hang with the little ones) and enjoys running around; most of the time, she’s trying to hang with the humans, though.
Okeeheelee Park has done a fantastic job of introducing Pooch Pines into the community and I seriously can’t say how wonderful it is to have this dog park in the neighborhood.

This park has separate areas for large and small dogs. It’s part of a larger park, Okeeheelee Park, which has a bunch of nice areas. The dog park is nicely maintained and they have restrooms right by the entrance. My dog loves running around the enclosed area and there’s even a water fountain his size. The other patrons are very nice, if you’re close, stop by with your dog and enjoy! Park is open sunrise to sunset.

My dog is exhausted after every time he sets foot in this park. It is well maintained and quite busy with many dogs.

Well, the park looks nice but I couldn’t go in since I have two dogs — one over 30lbs (40lb beagle) and one under 30lbs (15lb cocker mix) and there are two separate areas for dogs. Tried to go in under 30lb area and was told by several people to leave. Very disappointing. Guess you can’t have two different sized dogs and go to this park. I’ll have to find somewhere else I guess.

best dog park around! we drive a bit to get to this park but its always worth it. theres always lots of other doggies and the park is big inside with lots of shade and benches to sit on. there are divisions for different animal sizes and they even rotate between different areas to keep the grass fresh and alive. we love it

Phoebe loves meeting new friends at the Pooch Pines dog park. Benches are available to sit and observe all the dogs. People are friendly to all of the dogs and enjoy watching them socialize and chase each other.

We’ve been here twice with our frenchie Zoe, and we really enjoy this park. We are new to the area, and honestly had never seen such a nice dog park. 2 seperate sections, 30 lbs and over, and under. Water station, and a spot for baths. It’s great,

I like this park and I’m sure my dog does too because she’s DEAD after each trip here.
This park has three fenced areas, one for small dogs (under 30lbs) and two for large dogs. But I’ve never seen both large areas open at the same time.
This park has, I think, pretty much everything you’d want for a dog park. It’s fenced in with big open spaces. Benches under large shady trees and a gazebo in each area. Multiple poop bag stations in each area. Water stations and a wash area for your stinkin’ dog (s). And my favorite, the flies.
That’s actually a complain about this park. I’m not sure what can be done about the fly problem that’s safe for the dogs. Maybe it’s because people don’t pick up after their dogs. Seriously… that’s disgusting! You’re gonna let your dog running around, rolling around on grass with SHIT everywhere? and then you let your dog into your car with SHIT! on it? you make me sick!!!
Eh, whatever. It’s still a great dog park and I’m not going to stop taking my dog here because of some pesky insects. I just give my dog a bath afterward.
