Dr. James W. Thornton Dog Park

location_onFresno, CA

Named for Dr. James W. Thornton, this Fresno dog park gives Central Valley owners a free, off-leash area where dogs can run without a leash. Fresno summers are hot and dry, so shade and water matter, and morning or evening visits are the comfortable call from late spring into fall. The off-leash design fits owners wanting to exercise and socialize an active dog. Our records do not confirm whether the run is fenced or what the surface is, so if a secure enclosure is important, verify that on site before unclipping. A practical no-cost stop for Fresno residents looking for a dedicated place to let their dog off the leash.
