Safe. Welcoming. Community-Focused.
We believe dog parks are more than recreation spaces—they strengthen community connection, support mental and physical health, and improve quality of life for residents of all ages.
Petaluma is a dog-loving community, yet many residents feel our current dog-friendly spaces fall short in safety, accessibility, and overall experience. We’re a community-led committee advocating for a modern, thoughtfully designed dog park that better serves both residents and their dogs.
