About the Park
Run by the City of Fort Worth's parks department, Calhound Dog Park is one of the city's official off-leash sites, with its own page on the fortworthtexas.gov website. It sits in the 76104 zip code just south of downtown, near the hospital district, making it one of the closer off-leash options for people living or working in the city center. Use is free. Fencing, surface, and hours are not listed in available data, so check the city's dog park page for current rules — Fort Worth publishes those details for its parks. North Texas summers are hot enough that midday visits from June through September are tough on dogs; mornings work better.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Calhound 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, Calhound Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
backpackWhat to Bring
Fresh water and a bowl
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.
A folding chair
This park may have limited seating, so a portable chair can make longer visits more comfortable.
A reflective collar or light-up leash
If you visit near dusk, visibility gear helps you keep track of your dog and stay safe.
High-value treats
Useful for practicing recall in a distracting environment and rewarding good social behavior.
Your dog's favorite toy
A familiar toy can help shy dogs feel more comfortable and give them something to focus on.
