Lakeshore East Dog Park is a beautiful dog park featuring a doggie drinking fountain, playground, garden, and trails. Despite its small size of 4.6 acres, Lakeshore East Dog Park can get pretty busy. The park offers a mixture of completely covered paved and grassy trails for puppies to play and roam freely.
