I think the Best Dog Park in Dakota County is “Dakota Woods” in Rosemount, MN. Rosemount is in the south east metro area of Minneapolis and just on the edge of Lakeville, Farmington and close to Apple Valley, Burnsville, Eagan and Inver Grove Heights.

This Dog Park has a huge field for the dogs to run, rump and play together; plus they have numerous large trails cut through the woods with a mulch base. If you and your pup are adventerous, you can cut into some of the less traveled trails.

We love going to the dog park. Our dogs run circles around the house when we tell them they are going. With one dog at 155 pounds and the other at 192 pounds, running laps in the house is not a good thing!! Even though they have a huge back yard to run and play the dog park is “all that” and then some!

We have tried numerous Dog Parks in the Southern Metro area of Minneapolis, MN and this one is the best by far. Our dogs LOVE IT! Check  out these pictures from one of our weekly visits this winter, this is the true meaning of joy for our pups.
