Leawoof Dog Park

I don't pretend to be a "dog park aficionado" by any stretch of the imagination, but new pup = new things. All I can say is that I loved the place...and my pup did, too. It's big and open and he ran like he was the Flash all over the place. We went mid-day, so there weren't very many other dogs there, which was fine, as he's just getting into making friends. The dogs we did meet, though, were super friendly and so were their owners. We'll be rolling over there on the regular. I can sit and read and he can run like he's chasing buffalo across the prairie, or whatever Kansas dogs do in their dreams.

I frequent dog parks often and more than anything what makes a dog park is the other owners. It is very infrequent that you run into an unfriendly person at leawoof. The vast majority clean up after their dogs and are willing to stop and chat about their dogs when you want to engage. It does get muddy in the rainy seasons but they do provide a washing area with a short hose near the entrance. It would be awesome if they made a paved walkway around the edge at some point but I think it's fine to walk around the inside of the fence if that is your thing. My boys have never had a bad experience here. Also, it's very serine despite being pretty close to the highway. Especially in the fall when the leaves are changing (now) it's a beautiful park for people and pups.

This is a nice dog park amongst the trails out in Leawood, before you feel like you're way out in south Leawood. There's all the things you need like a doggie drinking fountain, off-leash area for small dogs and a separate one for larger dogs. I like all the shade on the trails around it, and there's water off the trails if you have a water-loving dog. That factors in to the overall experience for me, and the Indian Creek trails are always enjoyable, safe (although watch for flooding and the occasional news story about a flasher), and you'll see some wildlife for sure.Really there isn't a ton to it outside of the mini "obstacle course," but it's always nice to let the dog go nuts and run amok in a space that isn't my office or living room.

Leawoof is both Leo (my dog) and mine's favorite dog park in Johnson County! There's two does both fenced in, one for small dogs and one for all dogs. The all dog side is much bigger than the small dog side. Leo enjoys going to both sides! The all dog side has an obstacle course although some of the equipment is broken. There are dog fountains on both sides. Dog owners at Leawoof seem to me more friendly than other dog parks in Johnson County. I've met some very kind people here and of course some paw-dorable dogs! Sometimes the park is closed when it rains a lot, I've gone a couple times and the gate has been locked. If you have a furry best friend, I definitely recommend taking him or her to Leawoof!

Lady and I have been to a lot of dog parks and this is one of our favorites! It's split into a larger dog area and a smaller dog area. The large dog area is open and grassy with an agility course. The small dog area is spacious enough for small dogs, but is kind of small. There aren't that many trash cans, but plenty of poop bags to go around! It's truly a beautiful dog park.You do have to park a little bit away and walk, but it's a nice walk.The one downfall is when it rains there are some serious mud puddles. Hilarious to watch dogs tromp through it, not so much when it is your own.

We just moved to the area and have three dogs. A cocker spaniel, an American pit bull, and a Labrador/Australian Shepard. I am not going to recommend a dog park where I cannot bring all of my babies. My dogs LOVE off leash dog parks and I have never seen a dog park discriminate against ONE breed of dog. Absolutely ridiculous. I don't appreciate not allowing pit bull breeds, and for that I leave this review.

I was expecting more features since the setting was so nice. Beautiful gate and entry way. But actually this is kind of the plain jane of Johnson County dog parks. There's really no variation to the terrain, which has its advantages for visual contact with your dog, but is kind of a boring stroll for humans. The agility equipment is a nice touch but most of it is in disrepair. I'm sure Leawood can afford some basic maintenance. So overall not a bad park, just not very exciting.

Its a very large fenced in area to bring your dogs. The dog park is about 200 meters from the parking lot. It is a great places to bring dogs of all ages and all sizes. There is another fences in area for small dogs. It seems like most people that come there are responsible dog owners and keep an eye on their dogs while they are playing.

Great park - huge and open. My dog is new to our house and a puppy and he likes to jump up at people - especially little kids that squeal and scream. I have had a couple people act very rude toward me when my dog jumped on them or their kids. I know my dog needs to learn not to jump, but this is a dog park first and foremost, not a human park. If you can't handle having an excited puppy jump up at you, don't come to the dog park. And if your kids aren't comfortable with strange dogs, leave them at home.

If you want your dog attacked by untrained and out of control dogs who are neglected by their owners then this is the perfect place to go! The owners will watch as their wild animals attack your dog and will do absolutely nothing about it. This is the dog park for dogs who sit in their crate every weekday Mon-Fri until their owners let them free on the weekends and still can't manage to spend 5 seconds with their dogs to ensure they are behaving properly. After the attack my dog endured today he has regressed back to his timid ways after I spent months working with him because he came from an abusive home, only for him to be abused at the dog park. I will not be recommending my family and friends to bring their dogs here if they care about their animals safety and well-being.
