Anyone could bring their dog to the off-leash park for an admission fee or with a monthly membership.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"Follow nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.star-telegram.com\/entertainment\/article219428170.html\">The Fort Worth location<\/a> opened in 2018 at 5317 Clearfork Main St. In addition to the Clearfork restaurant, the Dallas and Allen locations also permanently shut down.<\/p>\n<p>Those with MUTTS memberships were notified of cancellation via email Monday morning. Those with month-to-month will have no future charges. For those with an annual plan, the MUTTS team will calculate any remaining unused time and issue a prorated refund to your form of payment within 30 days.<\/p>\n<p>The dog park and bar is owned by Free Range Concepts, which also operates the Dallas-based <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"Follow nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/joeleotexmex.com\/\">Joe Leo Fine Tex-Mex<\/a> and <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"Follow nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.therustic.com\/\">The Rustic<\/a> restaurants \u2014 both of which have dog-friendly patios. Neither MUTTS nor Free Range Concepts has commented on why the restaurants closed.<\/p>\n<p>However, the MUTTS team did tell the Star-Telegram: \u201cAfter nearly 15 years, we\u2019ve had a great run with MUTTS in Dallas and Fort Worth, and it\u2019s time to shift our focus to our other brands. We still own the MUTTS name and don\u2019t know what\u2019s next for it \u2014 but today we\u2019re simply grateful. Thank you to our team, our guests, and every dog who made it special.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>        Related Stories from  Fort Worth Star-Telegram<\/p>\n<p>                <a href=\"https:\/\/www.star-telegram.com\/profile\/285141852\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n                        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"author-thumb\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ELLA_GONZALES.jpeg\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" alt=\"Profile Image of Ella Gonzales\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>\n                    <\/a><\/p>\n<p>                <a class=\"author-name\" href=\"https:\/\/www.star-telegram.com\/profile\/285141852\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Ella Gonzales<\/a><\/p>\n<p>                    Fort Worth Star-Telegram<\/p>\n<p>            Ella Gonzales is a service journalism reporter for the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
