In preparation for the forthcoming demolition of the Tri-Rivers Stadium and future development of Kenwood Park, the City of Salina has closed the former dog park area to the east of the stadium to ensure safety of all participants and pets.
The City of Salina maintains two public dog parks: Barkley Park and the Salina Animal Shelter Dog Park.
Barkley Park is a fully fenced, two-acre public dog park located south of Dean Evans Stadium on Markley Road. It is open to the public daily from 5 a.m. to midnight.
A second, smaller dog park is located at 329 N. Second Street directly behind the Salina Animal Shelter to the west. This park is also open from 5 a.m. to midnight with the exception of a daily closure from 9-11 a.m. Monday through Friday.
All dogs must be over four months of age and have a current rabies shot and city license (Salina residents only) to visit either park.
