Fossil Creek Dog Park

Address: 5883-5901 S Lemay Ave, Fort Collins, CO 80525

Wood chips cover the ground at this large, fenced Fort Collins park, keeping things drier than the typical dirt surface. Separate sections for big dogs and small or shy dogs make it a reasonable option for more cautious pups, and shaded seating with benches and picnic tables gives owners a comfortable place to settle in. Water bowls are available, but the spigot can be unreliable — especially in colder months — so bringing your own water is a safe call. No restrooms on-site.
