Spanning a comfortable 3.75 acres, North Lakes Dog Park is among the best in Denton for both large and small breeds. Divided into four fenced sections, this park offers dedicated spaces for different-sized dogs, ensuring that everyone has room to play safely.

The park sits a few steps from the City of Denton's Animal Shelter, allowing those seeking to adopt a chance to meet and play with a potential new dog in a safe, open, and relaxed environment.

Adjacent to Lake Forest Park and the luxury Parkvue neighborhood, Wiggly Field Dog Park is a local favorite.
