More Dog Parks in Nampa (They Said) It’ll Be Fun (They Said)

Does the Treasure Valley really need another dog park? Apparently, because the City of Nampa is planning another one.

Nampa Parks & Recreation announced their plans to build a new dog park just off of Smith Ave, between Middleton and Midway (see photos below), and that’s proven to be a pretty controversial topic, which we were not expecting at all. Read here for more on the unexpected controversy.

We’ve covered this announcement before; however, the park didn’t have a name or an estimated opening date. As of right now, the park planned for Nampa still does not have a name — it’s currently being referred to as, “Nampa Dog Park 2.”

But they do have estimated opening dates and more details about what the park will have. Well, opening dates might be a stretch... more like “time of year,” which isn’t very specific... but it’s something.

Here is an image of the Nampa Parks & Recreation proposed master plan for the new dog park...
