About the Park
Spruce Pine Dog Park sits by the town Recreation Department off Laurel Creek Court, high in the Blue Ridge Mountains of western North Carolina. The fully fenced space keeps small and large dogs in separate sections and includes agility training areas for dogs that like a workout. It is open daily from 6:00 AM to 9:00 PM at no charge. Spruce Pine's mountain elevation keeps summers cooler and milder than the Carolina lowlands, which makes daytime visits comfortable through much of the year. Bring your own water and waste bags, since neither is listed as provided here, and take a moment to see how the dogs are mixing before letting yours off leash.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Spruce Pine Dog Park is fully fenced, so your dog can run and play off-leash without worry. This makes it a great choice for dogs still working on recall or for owners who want extra peace of mind.
There's a separate area for small dogs, which is perfect if you have a smaller breed that might be intimidated by larger dogs. This is a feature many dog owners specifically look for.
The park has agility equipment, which is excellent for high-energy dogs that need both physical and mental stimulation. Even if your dog hasn't tried agility before, most dogs pick it up quickly with a little encouragement.
Best of all, Spruce Pine 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.
A folding chair
This park may have limited seating, so a portable chair can make longer visits more comfortable.
High-value treats

Your dog's favorite toy
