Okotoks Off-Leash Dog Park to Get Safety Upgrades and New Trees

It looks like the dog park is going to the "paws" of perfection!

The Town of Okotoks is investing in improvements to the Okotoks Off-Leash Dog Park in Drake Landing, with a focus on safety and accessibility.

Double-gated entry areas will be installed at the north and south entrances of the park in September, providing an added layer of safety to prevent dogs from accidentally escaping. A larger vehicle access gate will also be installed at the south gate to improve accessibility for maintenance and operations staff.

In October, the town will plant native tree species in the southwest corner of the park, providing additional shade for visitors and their pets. The native species will naturally spread over time, enhancing the park’s natural beauty.

During the tree-planting process, the south access road will be temporarily closed for deliveries, and visitors are asked to use the north entrances. Tree-planting areas will be closed off with construction fencing to ensure safe working conditions.
