Just a ball-toss away from downtown, you’ll find the fantastic Fuquay Varina Dog Park in the Woodland Point neighborhood. The dog park is said to be a little difficult to find, but don’t give up because you and your pup will love the 8 acres of shady grass to romp around on. There are two separate fenced in areas for large and small breeds, with 6ft chain link fences to keep in the dogs who are jumpers and climbers! The dog park also offers drinking water and doggy waste bags. When it’s time for a tasty treat, head over to Stick Boy Bread Co. This locally owned restaurant has fresh baked pasties and two dog friendly outdoor tables.

In the Parker Point neighborhood in the west end of Fuquay Varina, you’ll be able to enjoy the biggest public open space in town. The Fleming Loop Recreational Park contains a massive 36 acres of soccer fields and green space surrounded by shady trees. It gets tails wagging every time! The Fleming Loop Recreational Park welcomes leashed dogs on its sports fields to romp and play, just be sure to only use the fields that aren’t in use by athletic events. And don’t forget to bring the clean up bags so you can pick up after your pup!
