Dog Park

Dog Park

The Waupaca Dog Park is located at 608 Lakeside Parkway in Waupaca and offers a safe, secure area for owners to take their normally leashed or house-bound dogs to get exercise running and playing with other dogs.  Dogs are allowed to run and play off leash and socialize with other dogs in a large 2-acre fenced-in area.  The fenced area has a double-gated entrance to avoid dogs getting out accidentally.

Besides the 2-acre fenced-in area, the Dog Park has picnic tables, a table shelter and a watering station for the dogs.
