So much fun for family, friends, and our fur babies. They have a large beer selection, snacks, tv in the bar to watch sports if you dont bring a dog, doggy treat, toys, leashes, collars and shirts! The owners are super nice, caring and have you and your pets best interest at hand.

This is an amazing place to socialize your dog and yourself. Its been 15 years since I trained a puppy and its nice to meet the other dog parents. They have been understanding about her energy and very helpful with advice. I hope they open a more local place but I will gladly continue to make the drive for my best friend.

The owners are absolutely amazing and they offer separate sections for smaller and larger dogs with toys in each. They serve coffee, beer, food, and more!

I stopped by last week to scope the spot out before bringing my puppy. The owner was there and was very friendly, and showed me all the amenities with a mini tour. I brought my puppy in today and he had a BLAST! We were there right when they opened so he had the place to himself to sniff around and get his bearings (recommended for dogs who might be a little nervous about the whole thing). Once a couple of dogs arrived he was able to quickly make friends. He is 4.5 months old so he is definitely still learning how to be appropriate but all the people and dogs were great and patient and he was a popular playmate. We will definitely be trying it out a few more times and if he continues to enjoy it so much well be getting the year long membership.

One of the best places the city of Rochester has to offer! Josh and Desi are AMAZING, these are people that truly care and I continue to be impressed with the constant monitoring they do and level of safety they maintain! This dog park has been monumental in helping to rehabilitate my rescue and also in my own life as well! Not only has my dog made new friends but I have too, I love this community!

This is a facility run by people that genuinely care about dogs. My medium sized dog, Coco Chanel, loves every dog she encounters here. The staff ensure all dogs are fully vaccinated and safe prior to meeting other dogs. Plus the beer and cider selection is fantastic! I love it both for my pup and myself.

Such a great place to take your four legged best friend and others. They have a very nice rotating selection of beers and hard cider, on tap and bottled, besides some wine options. The hot food options are available only on the weekends which isnt bad considering their hours of operation during the week. With two different fenced off areas for large and small dogs with a central single entrance to those its easy to go in and out to grab a round of drinks while the dogs still play. Best part is that youcan relax in the table and chairs provided and they have a single TV on the wall for sports games on the weekends.

Reading one of the below reviews, it appears this establishment allows rescue dogs in training who are not already properly socialized.This is very dangerous- I understand that dogs need to start somewhere to be socialized- but allowing in a cane corso on a leash, with all other dogs off-leash?This is a recipe for disaster like the other poster mentioned. Dogs dont know how to read bandanas that say do not pet. If theres a dog at a dog park, theyre going to approach it. Even the best-trained dogs become anxious when theyre leashed and being swarmed by unleashed dogs!People are registering their dogs to come here and expect a safe and consistent environment. If a dog isnt socialized enough to follow the same rules as other dogs (kept of leash and okay being petted by humans), it should not be in here, period. This is unsafe.If the owners feel passionate about allowing their facility to be a first step in socializing dogs without experience, then dedicated hours should be set up for that where they arent risking the safety of the public and paying customers.Im leaving this review as a call out and warning to potential customers that dogs here may be unpredictable and potential leash aggression is not mitigated/unleashing is not enforced.

My dog had the best first day here. The owners are so friendly and sweet. So many toys and soooo much attention! Kona would stay there forever if she had the choice. Definitely would recommend. Dogs plus beer plus food is a great combination.

I like this place and I wish I could have loved it. It definitely has potential. It was a quick check in for getting the process started and my dog to playing. When I brought my pup in to the play area the owner seemed to be very anxious. He quickly side stepped towards her very quickly like he was going to run at her and than started to give her commands.She got nervous and he accused her of having toy aggression. Once my pup settled in she had a great time. A big dog was brought in on a leash (stayed on leash the entire time and no one was told why the dog was leashed. Dont get me wrong the dog and the owners were fantastic! )But everyone whose dog was off leash were a little confused especially since the dog had a great big do not pet collar on. We could have helped the on leash dog be more comfortable if we knew why so we could adjust our dogs behavior(s) appropriately. I am just visiting the area so I did not have much time to make other arrangements for my dog. Would I come again? Probably since I am just visiting the area and the county dog parks are off limits (you need key tags/ or passwords to get in) so it was an easy way to burn off some of my pups energyEdit because I cannot respond to the owners: do you guys have any advanced training in dog behavior? Having a procedure for these situations would be helpful. Along with some advanced training in dog behavior with a focus on groups of dogs. Having unleashed dogs rush leashed dogs can be a recipie for disaster for even the friendliest of dogs. Having a procedure in place would be helpful to avoid these types of situations in the future. Example: announcing BEFORE the leashed dog comes in and requesting everyone temporarily leashes their dog for meet and greets. Or even just announcing it. It is stressful to try and figure out if its okay for your dog to approach or if you should wait for the owner to approach your dog with the leashed dog. Also announcing when food will be brought in (large container of chicken that was brought in). The rule states no food allowed so I was surprised. I have a do not feed bandana that makes life easier for us all,I just didnt realize I would need it.

Great place to bring your dog for positive interaction with other canine friends. I have been bringing my dog consistently since they opened. My dog has learned to be friendly with other dogs because of Better Together Dog Park. Thank you Josh and Desi for being such great doggie hosts.
