Oxbows Off Leash Dog Park
The Oxbows Off Leash Dog Park, is a 16 hectare site designed exclusively for dogs and their owners.
Location
The park is located at the corner of 19 Street and 40 Avenue. The park entrance is located off of 40 Avenue.
The Site
The site includes the following features:
- entrance staging area
- winding trails
- diverse terrain
- open training sites
- rest locations
- agility park
- amphitheatre
- interpretive kiosks
- small dogs area
Due to the site's closeness to Piper Creek, the park's trails and amenities were designed to mirror the creek's wandering nature; hence, it has appropriately been named 'The Oxbows".
