Waimea Dog Park

What We Stand For

​​​​​

Community

Our dog park is more than just a place for dogs to run—it’s a place where neighbors connect. It’s common to see friendships forming along the fence line while dogs play nearby. People share stories about their pets, exchange advice, and build relationships that strengthen the Kohala community. Whether you’re a longtime resident or visiting for the first time, everyone is welcome here.

​

Responsible Dog Ownership

A great dog park experience depends on responsible and attentive owners. We encourage everyone to stay engaged with their dogs, understand their behavior, and ensure that play remains safe and respectful for all. This includes supervising interactions, recognizing when a dog needs a break, and being mindful of the comfort and safety of other dogs and people in the park. Responsible ownership helps create an environment where everyone can relax and enjoy the space.

​

A Safe Space for Dogs

Dogs thrive when they have room to move, explore, and socialize. Our park offers a place where dogs can run freely, exercise, and interact with other dogs in a supervised environment. Regular play and socialization contribute to healthier, happier dogs and help reduce stress and boredom. We strive to maintain a space where dogs of all personalities and energy levels can enjoy themselves safely.

​

Sharing and Connection

One of the best parts of our community is the willingness to share. Members often exchange photos of their dogs, stories about memorable park moments, and helpful tips on training, health, and enrichment. From favorite walking trails to dog-friendly adventures around Kohala, our community enjoys learning from each other and celebrating the joy that dogs bring to our lives.

​

Stewardship

Keeping our park clean, welcoming, and safe is a shared responsibility. Picking up after our dogs, respecting park guidelines, and lending a helping hand when needed are all part of caring for this special space. We also believe in welcoming newcomers, offering guidance when needed, and supporting one another in maintaining a park that everyone can be proud of. Through small everyday actions, we help preserve the park for future dogs, owners, and community members to enjoy.
