Pat Bowlsby Off-Leash Dog Park

Pat Bowlsby Off-Leash Dog Park, located at 1320 Campbell Avenue in Waterloo, Iowa, opened on June 12, 2009, as a 5-acre facility named for the woman who championed its creation with support from 125 community donors who contributed over $48,000. The park provides a fully fenced, off-leash environment where dogs can socialize and exercise freely, featuring separate areas for large and small dogs, water fountains, picnic tables, shade structures, and accessible facilities for visitors. Operating under Waterloo Leisure Services, the park serves as both a beloved recreational destination for pet owners and a gathering place that fosters community engagement and outdoor activities.
