Welcome to the Shreveport Dog Park Alliance!
We are excited to share the news that the dog park planned for our riverfront has been approved for the Stoner Boat Launch Facility and officially opened its gates on Friday, July 14 with a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony with many two and four legged in attendance.
This regional dog park is located on Clyde Fant Parkway at Stoner Avenue 2 miles south of downtown on the riverfront, inside of the Stoner Boat Launch Facility, 857 East Stoner, Shreveport, Louisiana 71101.
The dog park is open 7 days a week during the daylight hours that may vary depending on Daylight Saving's Time. Summer hours are 6am -10pm.
Concerns or questions should be directed to SPAR: becky.berry@shreveportla.gov or via private message on the SPAR Facebook page.
Located in an active area of the riverfront, this almost 4 acre area provides a park for people with seating and a scenic overlook of the river, and a fenced area for those with dogs. Separate large and small dog sides are included. The facility has bathrooms and ample parking.
The dog park enhances the activities provided on the riverfront that include a skate board park, disk golf park, marina/boat launch, walking and biking trails, baseball fields, sprayground, memorial areas, YMCA complex with a pool and more. The area is also used for other sports related interests.
The dog park is easily accessible and adds to the parkway that is dotted with apartments, condos/townhomes, and new schools. Shopping, restaurants, and casinos are nearby.
The Stoner Boat Launch Facility was built with money from the Red River Waterway Commission. The dog park adds to the project thanks to $280,000 funding from them. The Shreveport Dog Park Alliance contributed $28,000 in design money with the help from donations and fund raisers making this a public/private partnership. Others have donated to the project too.
This is a public, city park and will be maintained by Shreveport Parks and Recreation's SPAR. Caddo Parish helped in its creation and will provide assistance with Caddo Parish Animal Control creating a collaborative effort between the city and parish.
The Shreveport Dog Park Alliance will continue to raise money to enhance the dog park and assist others in the creation of smaller community dog parks. The city has created a handbook on how to start a dog park. Contact us for sponsorship opportunities. Be Sure to Check out our Shreveport Dog Park Supporters Photo Album.
