Help Shape the Design of the Northwest Dog Park

The City of St. Albert is planning a new fenced off-leash dog park in the Cherot area and is seeking your feedback on the proposed design. Whether you’re a dog owner, park user, or nearby resident, your input will help us design a space that works for everyone.

At this stage, your feedback will help us ensure the space meets community needs and refine design features such as:

  • Trails
  • Seating
  • Shade
  • Dog play areas

Have your say online or in-person between August 12 and September 8 to be part of designing a functional space for dogs and their people alike.

About the Project

The Northwest Dog Park would be St. Albert’s largest fenced dog park. The planned site is located near Villeneuve Road and Ray Gibbon Drive in the Cherot neighbourhood. This park is being developed to respond to the growing demand for dog-friendly spaces and will help alleviate pressure on existing parks, particularly Lacombe Lake.

Key features in the proposed design include new trails, open play areas, shade and rest spaces, and opportunities for canine agility and socialization.

Due to nearby infrastructure projects, such as upgrades to Ray Gibbon Drive, Range Road 260, and the planned Community Amenities Site, the location is designated as a temporary park site. The City has considered the potential developments in the area and has designed the park to accommodate future changes as much as possible, however, some dog park amenities may change as this area evolves.

Get Involved

We want to hear from you! Join us online or in person to share your ideas. The information provided by you, along with technical studies, budget, available space, and other nearby projects will be used to create a final design for the Northwest Dog Park.
