What else to know

  • Human water fountain only — no dog bowl or spigot. Bring your own.
  • Equal-size large/small sides. Agility obstacles, some in disrepair. Free bags, interior trash can. Small lot. Drains poorly — muddy after rain.

Still to confirm

Listed openly rather than hidden, because a gap you can see is worth more than a gap you can't.

  • Confirm agility equipment condition
  • Photograph the drainage/mud issue after rain

Field reports

What people found when they were actually there. Every one is dated to the visit, read before it goes up, and credited. If a report contradicts something above, we go and re-check rather than quietly swapping it.

No reports yet

Nobody has sent one in for Elsmere Dog Park. If you've been recently — and especially if something above is wrong — you know more about this park today than we do.

Report form not configured

Set PUBLIC_REPORT_ENDPOINT to a form endpoint to switch this on. Showing a placeholder rather than a form that drops what people write.
