According to a Washoe County Regional Parks and Open Space press release, "The new dog park features separate fenced areas for large and small dogs, a double-gated entry system to provide a secure area to leash and unleash, shaded seating areas, walking paths and watering stations." The park was made possible through a $150,000 donation from local humanitarian Link Piazzo.
Hidden Valley Regional Park is at 4740 Parkway Drive in the Hidden Valley neighborhood of east Reno. To reach the park, drive east on Pembroke Drive from McCarran Blvd., past the Rosewood Lakes Golf Course and into Hidden Valley. Turn right on Parkway Drive and follow it a few blocks to the park entrance. Contact Bob Harmon at (775) 823-6519 for more information.
This newest dog park adds to existing Reno and Sparks dog parks at Rancho San Rafael Park, Virginia Lake Park, Whitaker Park, and Sparks Marina.

Link Piazzo has done many wonderful things for the Reno community! Our dogs enjoy the Link Piazzo dog park he funded, and we thank Link every day while our dogs Bode and Nan run free. We help keep the Park maintained, and recently hung a four-page tribute to Link on the chain-link fence, for other park users to read, to better understand the man who worked so hard, for so many years, for the benefit of his community. Three cheers for Link Piazzo!
Thanks Paul. Your testimonial about Link Piazzo is great. It’s good to hear about good people and the things they do for a change.
My family and I would like to thank Link Piazzo for this beautiful dog park.
Our dog, T.J. enjoys having a place to socialize with all kinds of other great dogs and we have met so many nice people there.
This park is unique to the area with its dog park with separate fenced areas for big and small dogs which insures that everyone feels comfortable and safe.
My two little dogs love going to Link Piazzo park meeting furry friends to play with and very nice humans who pet them and occasionally even some treats.
Its the best place in the area for socialization and exercise.
Besides the fenced in play areas with drinking fountains and benches park offers a huge open space for hikes and exercising.
I love the park as much as my doggies do.
