The Hagan Dog Park is an off-leash dog park in Rancho Cordova, California. This piece of doggy paradise is two and a half acres of the city's Hagan Community Park which is just for dogs. This Rancho Cordova dog park has all the amenities anyone could ask for including a parking lot.Â
The Parks and Recreation Department in Rancho Cordova know just how to treat pet owners and their four-legged friends well. Pooches are welcome on the trails of the community park too, if they are on a leash and their owners keep an eye out as there have been sightings of rattlesnakes.
This dog park in Rancho Cordova is comprised of three different sections which are in constant rotation. There's one section for big dogs, one for small dogs and one which is left to rest so the grass can grow. Being grass in a dog park and staying green is not easy, it gets trodden and peed on a lot. With a bit of tender loving care, some extra seeding and watering it soon springs up as good as new.
Parents strike lucky at the Hagan Dog Park. Although children are not allowed in the off-leash areas, there's a kids playground right next to it, so it's easy to keep an eye on the youngsters from the dog park. That saves the kids from the risk of catching infections from the dog's poop in the dog park and means the dogs can enjoy some off-leash time without having to behave properly around misbehaving kids.Â
It is a win-win situation so long as owners still remember to pick up their pup's poop. There is no excuse not to. If pup owners are worried about rattlesnake bites, they should speak to their veterinarian. Anti-venom vaccinations are available and getting that one extra shot might be another expense, but could save a pup's life.
