About the Park
Open from sunrise to sunset, Best Friends Dog Park serves Pleasant Hill, a Cass County town on the southeastern edge of the Kansas City metro. Dogs can run off-leash here at no cost, as it is a free public park. The daytime-only hours make it an easy stop for a morning or early-evening outing rather than after dark. Details like fencing, surface, and any separate areas for small or large dogs are not recorded here, so check the entrance signage when you arrive. Western Missouri summers get hot and sticky, so the cooler ends of the day are usually the most comfortable window for both dogs and their owners. Bring water on warm visits.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Best Friends Dog Park is an off-leash area without full fencing. Make sure your dog has solid recall before letting them loose, and keep an eye on them near any roads or boundaries.
Best of all, Best Friends Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
backpackWhat to Bring

Even parks with water fountains can have them out of service. Bring your own to be safe.
Poop bags
Most parks provide them, but don't rely on it. Always come prepared to clean up after your dog.

This park may have limited seating, so a portable chair can make longer visits more comfortable.
