Do pet-friendly splash pads have water bowls?

Communal water bowls are a vector for kennel cough, parvo, giardia, and other diseases, so most facilities have stopped providing them. A few well-staffed dog parks rinse and refill bowls hourly, but you can't count on it. The reliable plan: bring your own collapsible silicone bowl and a 32-ounce water bottle per dog for an hour-long visit. Dog-height drinking fountains (often with a lower spout that fills a basin) are common at newer dog parks and are generally safe — they refresh constantly. Avoid letting your dog drink from puddles on the splash pad surface, which collect contaminants. Encourage drinking every 15-20 minutes during active play; dogs often refuse water until they're already overheated.
