About the Park
Oakland Bark serves the city of Oakland Park in Broward County, in the 33309 area just north of Fort Lauderdale. It is a free public park offering off-leash space for dogs. The South Florida climate runs warm and humid across most of the year, so shade breaks and drinking water help keep visits comfortable, and cooler hours are easier on energetic dogs. Fencing, surface type, and posted hours are not confirmed in our listing, so keep your dog leashed until you can verify the enclosure on site. Check the signage at the entrance for operating hours and any posted rules before letting your dog run.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Oakland Bark 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, Oakland Bark is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
