About the Park
At Lakeshore Park on Crescent Street in Dalton, this fully fenced dog park packs in a lot for one stop. It has separate small-dog and large-dog areas, seating, waste bags, agility obstacles, and water access, all reached through a double-gated entrance that helps keep dogs contained during handoffs. The mixed surface and lakeside setting near a creek, playground, and ducks and geese give it a varied feel; keep an eye on dogs tempted by the wildlife. It is open from dawn to dusk and free to use as a public park. Dalton sits in the northwest Georgia foothills, where shaded areas help on warm afternoons. Bring water even though a source is on site, in case it is off-season.
