Patricia Simonet Laughing Dog Park is Spokane County’s year-round off-leash park near the Idaho state line in Liberty Lake. Former listings may call it SCRAPS Dog Park or Stateline Dog Park. The fenced site combines an open grassy fetch area with wooded walking space, a paved loop and a double-gated entrance.

Find the dog park entrance
Take I-90 to State Line Exit 299 and follow the visitor-information signs north, then east toward Spokane Bridge Road and the park lot. Look for Patricia Simonet Laughing Dog Park or older SCRAPS signage. Keep your dog leashed from the parking area until you are through both entrance gates.
Get directions to Patricia Simonet Laughing Dog Park. The street address and Exit 299 route are confirmed by Spokane County; follow posted signs if construction or seasonal conditions affect the final approach.
Grass, woods and accessible paths
The county describes two distinct kinds of space within the enclosure: a grassy area for fetch and a wooded natural area for walking. The paved path around the grass gives visitors a firmer accessible route, while the wooded area can provide shade and a slower sniffing walk.
The official description does not identify separate small- and large-dog enclosures. Check the dogs already inside before entering and choose a quieter time if your dog needs more space. Water and restrooms are seasonal, so pack a bowl and enough water during winter.
Rules before you enter
Handlers may bring no more than three dogs and must remain with and control them. Carry one leash per dog and leash dogs outside the off-leash area. Dogs must be vaccinated; dogs in heat and dogs showing dangerous or aggressive behavior are prohibited. Remove pinch or choke collars before entry.
Pick up waste and visibly carry cleanup equipment. Children younger than 16 need a parent or guardian. Glass and alcohol are prohibited, and bicycles, skateboards and other wheeled recreation equipment cannot enter the off-leash area. Review Spokane County’s complete current rules and gate notices before visiting.
What other park goers say
Visitors often praise the amount of room, secure fencing, double gate, shade, picnic tables and mix of open grass and wooded trails. Many describe it as a useful stop for dogs that enjoy exploring as well as running, and several appreciate that the park can still feel spacious when other dogs are present.
Other park goers warn that muddy areas can develop and that the drinking fountain is unavailable in winter. A few comments mention missed waste or handlers who were not watching closely. Bring water and a towel, assess the group at the gate and clean up promptly. Read current visitor reviews before making a special trip.
