this place in naperville doesn't seem to know much or is "confused" I am worried we would get there and there would be a problem. has anyone actually been to this park?

what about the one you went to before? tried and true might be a better option if you all like it?

True.  Freeport is tried and true.  I like a place that someone has seen. Renata is talking about going to the Naperville Dog Park.  Perhaps she can be our eyes and ears. I am surprised that no one has been to that dog park before and can tell us what they think of it.

The problem is that Freeport is pretty far.  Many people said that they would like it closer to Chicago and more people will come.

I am fine with Freeport.  Napperville is about 2 1/2 hours for me and Freeport is about 3 1/2.  Either is fine.  I see you live in Iowa.  Freeport woud be slightly shorter for you.

I live in McHenry and there aren't that many dog parks by us ]= I would go check it out but I'm unable to. This week, my brother is getting married on Saturday and on Monday I will be returning to school.

Also, http://reconnectwithnature.org/preserves-trails/dog-parks for rules and such.

Look....for what I know to go to a dog park here in Naperville you will need to get a permit , and the permit must be displayed on its lanyard during dog park use. I know about one park at the Forest Preserve at 87th. I just asked my neighbor and she said that to go to any dog park you need to pay for this license. I am going to Boughton 's dog park tomorrow...

I am confused... WHERE is Boughton's Dog Park? 

 

I thought you were planning to go to Whalon Lake Dog Park at 1480 Royce Road, Naperville.

Their web site mentions the permit and the lanyard for the annual membership to the dog park, but their web site also says...

"Daily permits cost $3 per dog for both in-county and out-of-county residents."

So, we can get a daily pass for the dogs to get in the dog park.

OK.  I guess I am wondering why we are talking about Boughton Park now.  Do they have a dog park as well?

 

I looked at both Google & Bing maps today and zoomed in on Whalon Dog Park and there is no shade there for the dogs. :(
