Wantage Dog Park

About

This off-leash dog park operates on over 8 acres of fenced property in Sussex County, providing separate designated areas for large dogs, small dogs, and senior canines. The facility includes an agility course, fresh well water for pets, waste disposal supplies, and shaded seating areas with umbrellas and benches. Pet owners can access the grounds from dawn to dusk without charge, though the park relies entirely on visitor donations for maintenance and operations. The park maintains strict safety protocols including vaccination requirements for dogs over four months old, prohibition of certain collar types, and mandatory supervision of children under 16. Additional amenities include ample parking, seasonal decorations, toys for dogs to use, and restroom facilities for visitors. Dog owners must carry leashes at all times and are limited to bringing two dogs per adult, with specific rules governing behavior during crowded periods and when other dogs are present nearby.
