Very Nice Off-Leash Dog Park. This is an excellent park. The park is a large fenced-in area with a 2-gate entry system to control runaways and ‘Hairy Houdinies.’ The land is owned by the City of Akron, but is operated by BARC (Better Akron Recreation for Canines). BARC’s website is http://akrondogpark.org/. The website is very informative, and I suggest that you check it out before visiting the park (especially the section on rules.) I use this park often, and I meet some of the nicest people. My only complaint is that not everyone follows the rule of cleaning up after their own dog. I know I do. Please come and visit, but make sure that you and your pooch only leave footprints/paw prints and nothing ‘else’.Location: 499 Memorial Parkway. Directions: From Akron take Tallmadge Road west.
