History

Paws Dog Park – A History Paws Dog Park, now located within the expansive Treaty Park in St.

Augustine, Florida, boasts a rich history spanning over a decade.

Initially conceived as a community-driven initiative, the park’s origins trace back to a desire for a dedicated, safe space for dog owners and their canine companions in the area.

The park’s development stemmed from a recognized need for a place where dogs could freely socialize and exercise, fostering a strong sense of community among local pet lovers.

What began as a small, informally-used area within Treaty Park gradually evolved with community input and modest improvements.

Over time, the park was expanded and refined, incorporating features designed to cater to a diverse range of dog breeds and activity levels.

The addition of the concrete skating area, a unique feature within the park, was a particularly significant development, reflecting the community’s desire for a multi-faceted recreational space.

The park's enduring popularity is a testament to the dedication of its founders and the ongoing support of the St.

Augustine community.

The site continues to evolve, with recent construction projects including a prefabricated home and a community-driven blog documenting the transformation.

The park’s story is one of grassroots development, community engagement, and a shared love for dogs – a legacy that continues to shape Paws Dog Park today. --- behind.** Bags, shovels, and trash cans are located in the dog park for your convenience.\n * N in the dog park.\n\n\n**PAWS DOG PARK at Ron Parker Park**\nOld Beach Rd St Augustine, Fl\nThis dog park has shade, drinking water, benches, and mulch ground cover.\n\n== St.
