You state that Harlinsdale does not have separate parks for small dogs. It is the exact opposite, it DOES have 3 different parks.
Harlinsdale has been upgrading. They now have small and large dog areas as well as covered picnic tables for owners. Large area for dogs, though most of the area closest to the parking is dirt rather than grass.
