Dog Owner on the Move? Enjoy East Cobb's Sweat Mountain Dog Park !

If you are in the market for a new home and and your family includes a beloved four legged child like mine does, then you may want to Move to Marietta!   If you live in or move to a home that does not have a fence and you have dogs, I have the perfect solution to releasing some of your furry friend's endless energy!

After my husband, Tim , and I moved to Marietta we decided to get a dog.  We adopted a wonderful black lab from the Cobb County Animal Shelter  that we named Lucky. 

When Lucky turned 2 years old we decided to get him a sister. We adopted Dixie, a golden retreiver/ yellow lab mix we adopted from Pets to Be,a great group that does rescues for many different breeds of dogs.

 

With two adorable labs that have a ton of energy, we are constantly looking for a great place for them to go play and socialize with other dogs.  It was great to hear of such a place so close to where we live!

Named Best Dog Park in Summer by Atlanta Magazine

"One of the largest public parks in the metro area, Sweat Mountain is almost all shade, making this the perfect place for dogs in the summer-time - especially if they are easily overheated or especially furry."

Atlanta Magazine - June 2007

Sweat Mountain Dog Park

Sweat Mountain Dog Park  is Cobb County's first off-leash dog park that opened October 21, 2006. The dog park is located inside Sweat Mountain Park at 4346 Steinhaurer Road  Marietta, GA. 30066 approximately 1 mile north of Lassiter High School .  Sweat Mountain Dog Park sits on approximately 4 acres of land.  This great off-leash dog park boasts two separate fully enclosed areas for your dogs to play and release all of their energy!

Large and Small Dog Runs

Sweat Mountain Dog Park   has plenty of trees for shade (or watering!) and the ground cover is in wood chips, eliminating any potential muddy mess.  The park has benches, water fountains and plenty of poop bags available! Don't worry, there are always  plenty of puppies  to play with. 

My husband, Tim, and I love to bring Lucky and DIxie to Sweat Mountain Dog Park.  It is a great place for them to run around and a nice place for us to enjoy our Saturday morning coffee socializing with other dog parents!  It is a good way for your dogs to have fun and for you to meet your neighbors.

Cobb County has done a great job at keeping Sweat Mountain Dog Park a clean place for our dogs to play!  I welcome more dog parks like this around Atlanta!
