Dog Parks In New Franklin

Portage Lakes Dog Park in New Franklin, Ohio is a shaded lakeside dog park featuring a dock and fenced area where pups can swim and play. The park has some maintenance issues including muddy spots and aging benches, plus concerns about water quality and algae during certain times of year. While on the smaller side, dogs can potentially escape around the water fence line so good recall is important, but the peaceful tree-covered setting and water access make it a unique spot for water-loving dogs to exercise.
