Good spot
#107 of 150 Georgia parks
Is Union County Dog Park good for golden retrievers?
It scores 59 out of 100, which makes it good spot (#107 of 150 in Georgia). There’s no water to swim in, the main thing holding it back for a breed bred to retrieve from water. It’s fenced, so a golden with a so-so recall can run safely.
