The West Bloomfield Dog Park

The West Bloomfield Dog Park is located in Karner Farm at 5911 Halsted Road. This property is shared with our Community Garden. Entrance into the park is controlled by a keyless electronic system.  The park has drinking water, seasonally, for dogs and bags for waste disposal.  The park is open daily, year-round from 8 am to sunset except on Wednesdays when it closes from 8 to 11 am for maintenance. 

​The Dog Park offers nearly 4 acres of fenced-in area and is divided into 3 sections – one for all dogs, one for small dogs up to 25 lbs and one for people with physical limitations (ADA Accessible).

How to apply for a permit:

Sales for 2022 permits will begin on December 1, 2021.

​The annual fee is $60 for residents and is not prorated.  You must watch a brief orientation video followed by a short quiz.  Additionally, lost or stolen key fobs are $15.  
 
Registration:
To best serve you and to keep everyone safe during this pandemic, we are doing this process both remotely and in-person.  If you do not have a printer, the Dog Park Permit Application and Quiz can be mailed to you. ​Due to high demand, the Dog Park is reserved for resident use only.
