Sweat Mountain Park in Northeast Cobb is one of three parks in Georgia that’s included in a list of “Hidden Gems” for dogs.
Based on a survey of 3,000 dog owners across the country, the dog-oriented website Technobark.com “unleashed” a ranking 120 parks in all. The goal is “to highlight the unsung sanctuaries for pets and their owners, showcasing their unique features and the joy they bring to get tails wagging.”
Sweat Mountain Park, which includes a two-acre dedicated area for dogs off Steinhauer Road, came in at No. 41.
“It includes shaded areas, benches, and water fountains for dogs. The park is well-maintained and offers a peaceful environment for dogs to socialize and play, away from the city’s hustle and bustle,” Technobark said in a release.
That was the highest ranking in Georgia, followed by Piedmont Park in Atlanta at No. 68 and Newtown Dream Dog Park in Johns Creek at No. 84.
The top dog park was Prospect Dog Park in New York City, according to the survey, which you can peruse in full by clicking here.
Sweat Mountain was the first of three off-leash dog parks in Cobb PARKS, opening in 2006. The others are Pinter Road Dog Park in Acworth and Sweetwater Park in Austell.
