Laguna Beach Dog Park History

Established on October 17, 1992, the Laguna Beach Dog park was the first dog park in Orange County and one of the few in Southern California at that time. The creation of the park was developed by Laguna Beach officials, GTE Telephone Operations, who originally owned the land, and RUFF (Rescuing Unwanted Furry Friends), as well as a volunteer group that works with the city animal shelter. The Dog Park is owned, operated and maintained by the City of Laguna Beach.
