I drive past Winder Garden on my way to work (long drive all the way to Holopaw ). What park do you go to and what is it like? I could make one of the snowdog meet-ups there if you'd like. I've been keeping an eye out for more parks to meet at.

West Orange Dog Park
12400 Marshall Farms Rd
Winter Garden, FL, US 34787
Hours: Sunrise to sunset (7 days a week)
Cost: Free
This is a pleasant dog park with plenty of shade and fresh water (water fountain) for both dogs and humans (although personally I wouldn't drink it). There are balls to chase, plenty of mulch to dig in and time out pens ... just in case! There are two separate areas; one for smaller dogs and a bigger one for large dogs. Both have shaded seating areas for humans, some 'play equipment' to entertain dogs and a concrete path for walking on (handy if you need to bring a stroller or are in a wheelchair). Sometimes there is a paddling pool so your canine friend can cool off. There is a hose in the smaller park and both parks have plenty of plastic baggies to encourage people to pick up after their pet.


It's right off of 50. You turn as if you were going to West Orange High School. Right before you get to the on ramp to the 408 I think it is?

I love the West Orange dog park in Winter Garden. The monthy husky meet ups used to be there until they changed the meet up location earlier this year. Really easy to get to from 50, follow the signs for the High School and the dog park is right next to it.

I made a meet-up at the west orange dog park. It's Saturday, October 23 from 10:30 to 11:30. I probably won't be able to make it, but hopefully others will go.

I live in Florida too. But.....I live in Crestview, Fl.......Northwest Florida. =( Maybe I can find some Northwest Florida people here. How old does everybody suggest the husband and I start socializing our baby?

You want to start socializing her as soon as possible but make sure you finish her puppy shot series before taking her out so she doesn't get sick.

I am in Miami, and would like to know when there is a local meet, Miami/Ft.Lauderdale.

I'm trying to get a regular meet up started. Our next is in Ft. Lauderdale area (Plantation) it's the 19th. If you have a facebook you can find our group under SFL Snowdogs

That sound great, I will look for you on facebook.

We live just down the road in Milton. As brand new Husky owners, we are definitely experiencing one hell of a learning curve, and would love to meet up sometime and let the pups play. How old is yours now? Ours will be 12 weeks on Monday. Glad to find another person in NW Florida!

Hi blueeyedghost. My husky Calvin is 6 months old. Im glad there are other NW Florida owners. Did you get Ghost from a breeder in Baker? I would love to get the dogs together sometime!

We actually got her from a breeder all the way in Palatka. I did a lot of my research while I was still living in Oklahoma, and the timing actually worked out really well for a litter that was ready to go right after we moved here to Florida. It was a hike to get her, but worth it. Weekends are typically pretty open for us, so we ought to see if there is a dog park between Milton and Crestview. I'd love to get her together with another husky, because our cocker spaniel doesn't want anything to do with her and she needs some playmates. Glad I saw this thread!

Holopaw! Hey i take my Husky there mudding we have a camp in suburban estates. Im in port st lucie,fl. I dont know if hobie would do good in a dog park he has been attacked 4xs by big dogs so now all encounters with dogs his size or bigger are iffy.We did meet another Husky girl recently and he rubbed himself like a cat all over her she was very patient.

I'm in Florida also. In St Petersburg to be exact.
