The heat is here so let’s meet for a morning play date in Deep Ellum at Bark Park Central. There is plentiful shade at this 1.2-acre urban dog park in the heart of Deep Ellum. Bring your pup for fun with dogs of all sizes in this art filled off-leash play area. It is located on the southwest intersection of Good-Latimer Expressway and Commerce Streets, underneath the elevated portion of US-75. With views of downtown and eclectic artwork, you and your four-legged friend are within walking distance of great dog-friendly restaurants and bars if you want to grab lunch after the play date.
