I was talking to my dogs trainer when she mentioned that I should consider taking Carmen (our puppy) to the Boneyard so she could have more interaction with other dogs. I shared with her that I try to stay away from dog parks as I have heard they carry diseases and not all the dogs are nice, but she advised me to give this park a try.

Well, Carmen & I visited the Boneyard and it was the nicest and cleanest dog park I have seen. It is over 1 acre and is located in the middle of a large park. Divided into two areas, (1) for large dogs and (1) for smaller dogs, it features benches, trees, water fountains, a hilly area, pooper scoopers, an information board and a shaded area. The ground is covered with decomposed granite and it is truly user friendly.

It has been open since early 2006 and is operated by the Friends of Culver City Dog Park, a non-profit organization.

THE BONEYARD is located at Leash Lane @ Duquesne south of Jefferson Boulevard above the skate park.

If you are relocating and looking for a pet friendly community, or merely just looking for somewhere new to take your pet, consider the Boneyard.

This is truly the Best Kept Secret in Culver City............We hope to see you there!
