Oakland Bark is a large and very nice dog park, described as amazing. It is split into two separate areas for dogs over and under 25 pounds, with sections for bigger and smaller dogs. The park offers plenty for dogs to do, including plastic pools and water bowls for cooling off, an obstacle course along a walking trail, and a walking sidewalk for people. There is lots of shade and seating, and restrooms are available between the small and large dog sides. The community of people are generally very nice, attentive, responsible, and welcoming, and they clean up after their dogs. The dogs are well-behaved and can roam with others their size. While most visits are positive, experiences can vary with different crowds. The park is kept very clean and is highly recommended for dogs.
This was my puppy 3rd visit and he absolutely loves it, my baby is a survivor of a pitbull attack and I was worried about him interacting with other puppies, but it was a great experience. I plan to continue taking him back. Great pet parents and clean park, plus well shaded with trees.

Nice park with areas for small and large. My issue is I have 2 14 pound dogs and an 80 pounder so unless I'm alone it's hard to use.
