Shaker Field Dog Park
Shaker Field Dog Park
535 Route 4A
Enfield, NH 03748
Hours: Dawn to Dusk
PARK STATUS: Open
**Winter Park Operations**
The water system has been winterized, so please bring your own water (bowls provided), and remember to take empty water containers with you when you leave.
The dog park only gets plowed once at the END of each snow storm. If you drive by and the lot hasn't yet been cleared, please do not try to drive in or use the park as you will likely get your vehicle stuck.
We do our best to keep the park open and accessible through the winter months, but do close if needed for safety reasons (i.e. too icy inside the park, etc).
If you notice that it is getting dangerously icy inside the park and/or in the parking lot, please let us know so that we can take appropriate action to keep everyone safe. You can reach us here via emailat mascomavalleydogpark@gmail.com.

In preparation of your first trip to the park, especially if you're a dog-park-newbie, please review our rules and regulations (below).
Our park is self-regulating. Though there will often be a Park Ambassador on site to answer questions and give advice, we don't have 'staff' present at all times, so it is up to all park users to make sure that the rules are upheld in order to maintain a safe and fun environment for all.
Park Ambassadors are volunteers who have been significantly involved in the development and maintenance of the park, and are familiar with basic dog park etiquette for both dogs and people. They are there to answer any questions you might have regarding park rules or appropriate dog behavior and to ensure that the rules are upheld. They may also offer advice or intervene in a situation that arises; many of them have more extensive knowledge of dog body language and behavior.
Park Ambassadors wear name tags when at the park to identify themselves. If you are interested in becoming a Park Ambassador, please reach out to us via email or on Facebook.
We also highly recommend watching the YouTube series "At the dog park" by Sue Sternberg. Sue highlights common behaviors and gives tips on how to read dog body language.
