About the Park
Inside Beth Schmidt Park on Cook Road in Elon, the K-9 Corner is a fully fenced off-leash area serving this Alamance County college town. Agility equipment gives active dogs something to tackle, shaded spots offer relief from the Piedmont summer sun, and on-site water access keeps everyone hydrated. Seating lets owners settle in, and waste-bag stations help keep the grounds clean. The park is free and open daily from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM, with more information available through the Town of Elon website. Being part of a larger park, there is additional green space nearby for a leashed walk. Keep your dog leashed until inside the fence and bring backup bags in case dispensers run low.
