Do any of ya'll go to the dog parks here~? I've tried it, but the dogs have all gang up on my dog and scare him, or he runs with the big ole mastiff dogs. I really would rather walk in the parks so I can get my excerise too.

the one in Cherokee is kinda small but to answer your question, no, don't go to that one. Thee one in Lexington is much bigger and doesn't seem so overrun with dogs as it is designed for those that adopt Greyhounds and needs lots of room inside of a fenced 'pasture'.

There is a large one out at Tom Sawyer. I didn't know that about Lexington's dog park, interesting. The dog parks here is only in recent years. Everyone use to take their dogs to Cherrokke Park at the top of it, of which is named and still is known as "Dog Park"...something like that. There are people who still take their dogs there. A lot of people were upset when the dog fenced in area were going to be mandatory due to the dog laws we have now. Some dogs don't even behave in the dog parks due to the owners too.

The one in Cherokee has been moved to the area right 'above' the I-64 tunnel - off Lexington Rd. It's now fenced in where as the old one (unfenced) was on Barringer hill and the city probably thought it was getting out of hand. I wish the city would mow the city parks more often than they do.

Those locations are right, as you mentioned. I thought maybe you're from Lexington when you posted what you did. I'm sure the city is short on employees, as a lot of places and/or cutting staff. A great place to walk your dog is the nature trail in Cherrokke also.
