• There's no "off-leash" dog park anywhere around here. The only thing closest to that is a dog-friendly park (Murrieta Glen Arbor) in Murrieta, on the corner of Nutmeg and Jackson. I believe there are poop-bags there.
  
  I read an article in the Californian, maybe a year ago, that there were plans to build a dog park in Temecula. Haven't heard anything else about it.
  
  Otherwise the two closest off-leash parks is one in Corona, (Butterfield Stage Trail Park), on Butterfield Drive, opposite of the airport. Bring your own waterbowl.
  
  The other is in San Marcos, directly across the street from North County Yamaha, on Montiel Rd.
  
  There's supposedly another in Escondido, but have never been there.
  
  Probably the best off-leash park in the Inland Empire is Baldy View Dog Park, in Upland (a.k.a. "Upland Pupland") It's a longer drive, but has lots of shade, very big park, facilities, and lot's of dogs there, including a special fenced off area just for small and shy dogs.
  
  If you newlyweds are planning to go to a dog park, and want some company, let me know. Lisa and I take our two dogs to Corona or Upland now and then. Contact me.

• Thanks for all the great comments that were sent to me via email. Todd and I will definitely check the suggestions out. Especially the Upland park!

• there is a dog park in escondido. way out on valley parkway going towards valley center. not too bad either. there's (3) fairly large areas with grass joined together by gates if you want to go from one area to another. there is water spickets available (with drinking buckets) and bags to collect refuse. check it out.

• I found this thread looking for the same thing - I own a pet sitting/dog walking service in Temecula and was looking for ye ol' neighborhood dog park and I am surprised that there isn't one. I am originally from North County San Diego where there are a few. We now commute to Escondido for our romps with our own dogs, however, this is a bit far for our clients' pets. Would it be out of the question to possibly start a campaign to get one out here? The city is growing with each passing day, as are the homes with dogs. It would be wonderful to have a place where all the woofs could run! In the meantime, if anyone needs a dog walker to burn off some of that steam ... but that's for another post... :)

• Temecula finally has its first off-leash dog park. The temporary fences have been put up at Redhawk Community park. For now, there is no plumbing and there are no waste bags inside the fenced area, but it's still a great place to take your dog. Eventually, permanent fencing and plumbing will be put in.

• I live in Murrieta by the dog park off Jackson and Nutmeg. It is a great dog park with a lot of friendly people. Most people let their dogs off leash. If you want to let your dog run with other dogs usually in the afternoon 4 to 6 on the weekdays or 8 to 10 in the morning, 3 to 6 in the evenings on the weekends seem to have the most dogs and people.
