McKenzie Dog Park Temporarily Closes for Maintenance on August 12

Attention, Casper dog enthusiasts: McKenzie Dog Park, located at 1691 Bryan Stock Trail, will be closed for maintenance on Tuesday, August 12, from 6 a.m. to 3 p.m.

This temporary closure is part of the city's ongoing efforts to maintain the park's quality and safety for all visitors.

We appreciate the community's understanding as we work to keep our parks in top condition, stated Parks Supervisor Katy Hallock.

During this period, dog owners are encouraged to explore other local options.

Morad Park Off-Leash Area, situated at 2800 Wyoming Blvd., offers a scenic environment along the North Platte River.

While it lacks fencing, the park provides benches, a picnic table, and river access, making it a popular choice for many.

Another alternative is Dylan's Dog Park, located near the Tate Pumphouse along the Platte River Trail.

This fenced-in area allows dogs to run freely, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for both pets and owners.

For those seeking a more private setting, Sniffspot offers rentable, private dog parks in the Casper area.

These spaces are designed for exclusive use, providing a controlled environment for dogs to play without the concerns associated with public parks.

Looking ahead, the city plans to continue regular maintenance schedules for all public parks to ensure they remain safe and enjoyable for the community.

Residents are encouraged to stay informed about future closures and maintenance updates through official city communications.

In the meantime, exploring these alternative locations can provide fresh experiences for both dogs and their owners.

Whether it's the riverside charm of Morad Park, the secure confines of Dylan's Dog Park, or the exclusive access offered by Sniffspot, Casper offers a variety of options to keep tails wagging during McKenzie Dog Park's brief hiatus.
