On the edge of Mount Vernon, Ohio on Yauger Road you will find the Wolf Run Dog Park. This is a really nice fenced dog park and Wolf Run is a great place for your dog to run and play freely. We have taken our dog Chase to Wolf Run and he loves the wide open space so that he can run and he especially likes the lower and outer edge of the fenced area because there are trees and a nice wooded area. If you are unfamiliar with exactly where Wolf Run Dog Park is located less than a mile from the corner / intersection of Yauger Road and Upper Gilchrist Road which is right by the Mount Vernon Ohio UEC Movie Theatre on the east side of Mount Vernon. This feature article is part of our ongoing series titled 365 Things To Do in Knox County Ohio by Sam Miller.
