About the Park
Violet Township Dog Park is an official off-leash dog park in Pickerington featuring three distinct areas: a small dog section for dogs 30 pounds or less, a spacious central area for larger dogs with a covered shelter, and a narrow space for disc training or reactive dogs. The park is well-maintained and typically not crowded.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Violet Township 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.
Best of all, Violet Township Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
