Bluebird Dog Park

Cool dog park ☺ufe0f

Located at the back of Blue Bird Park, there are 2 nice sized dog areas here. The have all the amenities you might expect from a dog park. They have a large open flat area of artificial grass for playing fetch. The back part has tall trees and real grass. There are several benches and a special foot triggered watering station for the dogs to drink. Parking is very convenient and wheel chair/scooter accessible. My dog had a great time off his lease meeting the other dogs.

Great dog park! Only complaint is that there isn’t any lighting at the dog park or in the parking lot outside of the dog park. Not only would it be nice to have the lighting so you could enjoy the dog park longer durning these shorter daylight days but there really needs to be lighting for safety reasons.

This dog park is relatively small but nearly all the dogs are extremely friendly. The large dog area has AstroTurf, which is good much of the time. I avoid the AstroTurf on hot days because it gets too hot for the dog’s paws. It is slippery too. The turf may not be good for dogs with hip, ACL or back issues because slipping can cause further injury. (Just a bit of caution needed.) The park is clean and has water fountains for the dogs. It is near hiking trails that my dogs enjoy also.

Shouldn't it be called premium bluesbird dog park? You have to pay $40/year to use(!) Other than partial astro turf in the large breed side, nothing special other than it is located in one of the best parks in St. Louis. You have to sign up online, wait to be approved (not clear if you have to live in Ellisville) then pay to get a code to enter. Pffffft.
