Veterans Dog Park is the Village of Minooka's first off-leash dog park, located at the northeast corner of Wabena Avenue and Wapella Street in downtown Minooka. It features gorgeous hardscape and landscaping, providing ample space for dogs and owners to enjoy while honoring U.S. Armed Forces veterans. The park was donated by Mr. Larry Simotes and his family, with additional contributions from local businesses and residents.
Veterans 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.
Best of all, Veterans Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
Fresh water and a bowl
Even parks with water fountains can have them out of service. Bring your own to be safe.
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.
A reflective collar or light-up leash
If you visit near dusk, visibility gear helps you keep track of your dog and stay safe.
High-value treats
Useful for practicing recall in a distracting environment and rewarding good social behavior.
Your dog's favorite toy
A familiar toy can help shy dogs feel more comfortable and give them something to focus on.
