Dog Wood Park of Jacksonville, Inc. is a 42-acre swim and play park for people and their doggies (over 25 acres are currently fenced)! The park is the country's largest completely fenced dog park--a true heaven on earth for dogs!

In addition to the off-leash park we offer self-service dog bathing facilities featuring raised warm water tubs, a shop with people and doggie treats and other merchandise, a full agility course, agility and obedience training, and disc dog and flyball instruction and practice.

The first Dog Wood Park (under new ownership as of May, 2006) opened in Gainsville in 1998 and is still going strong! The Dog Wood Park in Gainesville was the country's first private multi-acre dog park.
