The Watering Bowl

"Amazing place to bring your dog and socialize with other dog parents! We had an amazing time and Nala had a blast. Clean spot with workers in the yard to prevent any fights (what a huge plus!!). Loved the beer selection, the friendly staff, and above all the experience. Can’t wait to be back!"

"I can't day enough good things about the watering bowl! I've been telling everyone I know with a dog about it! I take my pup several days a week, it's a great way for him to meet other pups and exert some energy while I enjoy some coffee or a beer. The facility is 21 and up, requires up to date vaccinations, and that your pup is spayed/neutered, which helps me feel good about the safety of my pup. The staff are on top of everything and they're super friendly. Highly recommend a visit!"

"I absolutely L O V E this dog part. I feel like I’m so lucky that it is just down the road from me. There’s staff walking the park at all times to make sure that the dogs don’t get into trouble and immediately step in to break up any tiffs. I have been coming here almost weekly for about a year now and have never seen any issues, ever. They have a bar, with a nice selection of choices for drinks, and creative seasonal ones. Both alcoholic and nonalcoholic. They hold parties and have themed days for different breeds. I hope they’re here forever and just keep getting better and better."

"I started going to this place in August as a way to catch up with my friend who is also a busy dog parent. Very quickly, the Watering Bowl became a part of mine and my dog’s weekly routine so we bought a monthly membership (huge bargain for what you get)! Leslie and her staff are the most welcoming and helpful people. As with any dog park, there are inherent risks, but the staff is very well-versed in dog behavior and promptly step in whenever they notice a potential issue. My dog and I are always greeted warmly here and it’s quickly becoming one of our favorite places in Austin to hang out!"

"This place has been our home for a year now. The rufferees are great and attentive to all dogs. Coming with 2 small dogs that are shy, gave me a bit of anxiety but the owner (Leslie) and the staff have made it so safe for them and for other dogs as well. I recently got a third dog and they welcomed him like he’s been there forever. This place gave us a sense of community that we didn’t know we needed and glad that the atmosphere resembles what they stand for. This is the only place I feel comfortable bringing my dogs to."
