Soggy Doggy Pool Pawty

Our annual canine pool pawty is back! Time for your furry friends to cool off, socialize, and enjoy the Splash. Please read through our rules carefully, as some things have changed in the last few years.

Registration is ONLY available through RecDesk or the Parks and Recreation office. Walk-ins will not be admitted on the day of the event.

To keep your friends happy and safe, we now offer the following two time slots for them to enjoy the pool:

Small, medium, elderly, or disabled dogs who may not feel comfortable around the bigger, more energetic dogs can enjoy the Splash from 9:00AM-10:30AM. From 10:30AM to 12PM, all dogs are welcome to splash around and cool off as things start to get a little warmer.

For further questions, please contact Sherman Parks and Recreation at (903) 892-7344.
