The Northern Tail Dog Park is a two-acre, double-gated, fenced, off-leash park featuring a doggy station, shade trees and more. It is located just north of the East Lansing Softball Complex along the Northern Tier Trail.
The Northern Tail Dog Park provides many community benefits by socializing and exercising dogs in a safe environment, promoting responsible pet owner ship, enabling dogs to legally run off-leash, promoting public health and safety and providing a tool for realistic enforcement of dog control laws.

Future Plans
The City of East Lansing plans to address wear and tear to the western quarter of the dog park this spring. In fall 2010, an additional entrance gate was installed. The plan is to redirect traffic while the repairs are taking place. In the future, the plan is to alternate entrances to alleviate future wear and tear.
