The Paxton Dog Park is the result of over a year of planning, hard work, and fundraising by the Paxton Dog Park Committee.Â
The Paxton Dog Park is located at Coady Park. It sits east of the tennis courts and north of the skate park. Currently, parking is available in the Civic Center parking lot off of Fall St. or you can use the gravel entrance close to the skate park off of Summer St. A more defined and improved entrance and parking will be made available come Spring 2014.
Hours: Open daily, year-round, dawn to dusk.
