Newtown dog park reopens in Johns Creek

North Fulton’s popular pup destination, Newtown Dog Park, at 3150 Old Alabama Rd. in Johns Creek has officially reopened. The park closed Mar. 1 for renovations to install new synthetic turf in the small dog park and main dog park areas.

Newtown Dog Park, which opened in 2011, features a fenced one-acre artificial turf area, sprinklers for dogs to play in, a bridge, hoops and tunnel obstacles to play on, plus water fountains for people and pets. The park offers separate play areas for large and small dogs, along with benches, shelters, and shade trees.

The dog park is open 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily, with one exception. The dog park is closed for maintenance 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. every Wednesday morning.
