Sherman Oaks Dog Park

Not bad, but I want bushes and trees. The area is quite small, but since I have a small dog, this is a small problem for me, and there is not enough space for large dogs. it seems clean, but sometimes you can smell dog and urine. There are poop bags, a place to sit, and plenty of dog toys.

Cons- No water on the fountain, Very small Artificial turf Many owners do not pick up after their dogs No shade at all Pros/ Empty at noon

Nice but Somewhat small...guessing 100 ft long. At one end, the street side, about 20 feet wide, and at other end, about 40 feet wide. I understand that morning and afternoon times are a bit busy...we were there from 10am till noon thirty...only one medium small dog visited for about twenty minutes within that time. "Astroturf", not real grass...just mentioning it, but not a problem... It was in decent condition, but could use a hose out... Poop bag dispenser was empty... Fencing, all around, there was was about a 4" gap; small dogs like chihuahuas may possibly get out...tennis balls definitely get out...I had to retrieve balls from every side, several times, including in the street!!! All this aside, my Shepherd/Border Collie had a great time!! (Two and a half hours worth) We appreciated the fact that it was there and was in decent condition. (City or county should pay more attention to management/maintenance)

Yes, the grass is artificial but it was a great place for my dog's first trip to a dog park. The dogs were friendly and the pet parents were all nice. We will be returning.

Artificial grass, a bit small for a dog park but still enough room to run around. Water fountain and poop bags are available.
