About the Park
Sentinel Dog Park serves Visalia, a Central Valley city in Tulare County near the gateway to Sequoia National Park. Dogs are welcome off-leash, and the park is free to use since it runs as a public facility. Visalia summers are hot and dry, so shaded early-morning and evening visits are the most comfortable for dogs, and fresh water is essential on warm days. Our records do not confirm whether the run is fenced or what surface it uses, so check the enclosure and footing before you let your dog loose. Hours are also unlisted here; a quick local check will confirm when the gates are open before you make the trip.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Sentinel 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, Sentinel Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.

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.
