Wichita’s dogs are getting a new park to run around in.
The proposed dog park in W.B. Harrison Park, 1300 S. Webb, will be constructed within the year, Troy Houtman, director of Park and Recreation, said.
The dog park will be located in the east corner of the park near the rugby field and include a large dog area, a small dog area, an agility park and a renovated parking lot.
“There will be areas to wash the dogs and some really fun amenities for the dogs to play with, like hoops to jump through and an obstacle course,” Houtman said. A conceptual design map depicts a large dog area and a small dog area with features such as shade structures, areas for open play, benches, tables, hillside fetch and fountains. The agility area includes a teeter totter, weaving posts, hurdles, crawl tube, a ramp and climb, and more.
Construction will be completed in the winter or early spring, Houtman said. The park is near Webb and Harry.
