Bark Central Dog Park
by Kyle
(Hernando FL)
Features include:
+15 acres of off-leash areas enclosed by six-foot chain link fencing.
+Separate small and large dog areas.
+Bags and scoopers are available for clean up.
+Naturally filtered swimming ponds (no chemicals).
+Lots of trees.
+Two training yards for individual or group use.
+Indoor, warm-water, elevated bathing tubs.
(To use all of their equipment...shampoo, conditioner, ear cleaner, towels, tub, and cologne it's only $5.00. And they clean everything up for you!!)
+Outdoor rinse station as well as an air force dryer to clean your pup up after they have played. (So your car doesn't have to suffer.)
+Temperament screening for all dogs. (Which is a huge plus! So many other parks just let any dog out there.)
+Proof of rabies and DHLPPC vaccinations required. (So you know that your pup won't catch something from another dog.)
+Pesticide free grounds.
+Dogs over 7months of age have to be spayed or neutered unless they hold a CGC.
+Children under the age of 14 are not permitted in off leash areas. (For safety reasons)
+Two grills for public use.
They have annual($300 for the first dog and $50 for the second.), monthly ($30 for the first dog $5 for the second.), and daily visits ($10)are available. The first time you come out to the park it's free.
They also offer Puppy, Basic Obedience, Agility 1 and 2, Rally-O, and Flyball classes. Which I will have to say are a blast!
I will have to say this is one of the greatest places I have ever been to! Only thing is their office hours are a bit different then park hours so if you haven't been there before make sure to write them down.
