Dog Areas in Violet
Violet is a small community of about 10,000 just east of the Mississippi River. Only about five square miles, this area doesn’t have any dog-friendly amenities -- but never fear: thanks to this community’s close proximity to New Orleans, there are tons of Fido-friendly activities within reach (and over fifty vet clinics within twenty miles).
Just twenty miles west, in New Orleans, lies The Dog Levee. This open-air dog park is clean and great for uptown pups. There's a walking path and swimming hole, so be sure to bring a towel!
NOLA City Bark is also in New Orleans -- just thirty minutes northwest of Violet. This park, the pride and joy of the NOLA dog community, is five acres complete with shade pavilions and an event lawn. There’s a quarter-mile walking trail and a communal water fountain. Because it’s so well maintained, this is a permit-only park. However, visitors passes are available!
Also in New Orleans is Crescent Park. Thirteen miles northwest of Violet, this park is home to a fenced dog run in its Downriver “Kickabout” section. Dogs are encouraged to play off-leash as long as they’re well-behaved and vaccinated.
Be sure to take advantage of the many dog-friendly amenities -- mainly top-tier dog parks -- that Violet’s surrounding community has to offer!

#3 Pelican Drive
24Although Mandeville is nearly 60 miles from Violet, many Violet residents would argue the drive is well worth it. After all, Mandeville is home to a pretty pawesome state park, Fontainebleau State Park. This massive state park offers hiking, camping, and fishing, but most importantly, it’s also home to an off-leash dog park! The dog park is closed on the first Wednesday of each month for maintenance. Note that there is an admission fee to enter the state park, but all proceeds go toward the park’s upkeep. Dogs must be leashed outside of the dog park.
