Kensington Dog Run

This dog park is kind of on the small side, but the regulars are cool. Not bad for NYC!

Great dog run, lots of dogs, clean turf. A little far for me but makes a great walk through Prospect Park on the weekends to get there.

First time here and I loved this park for my little guy. The separation of small to big dogs is good. Though if you have a friendly small dog it's okay to let them run with the big dogs, it's not suggested to of you know they're not going to get along or don't like playing rough. Everyone is nice and friendly and so are the dogs. I let him play for about 3 hours and it knocked him out when we got home he had so much fun.

I love coming here. It's such a welcome space in the area. There’s always a good mix of different sized dogs. It can get pretty crowded at specific points, so I tend to come either early in the morning or later in the evening. Even in the busy times, it's good, but you have to watch your dog and others a bit more so there are no tussles.

Sadly, my puppy and my family had a bad experience at this dog park. If you have a large breed puppy I do not suggest to visit this dog park. My dog was mounted on by another dog and the owner did not recall. My husband stepped in immediately to remove the dog from mounting our puppy. However, the dog continued the attack causing about 7-9 additional dogs to react. I noticed no other owner stepped in to retrieve their dog and at that point I realized I had to help my husband and puppy escape the swarm. Unfortunately my husband was bit as a result and my puppy is now traumatized.

People, please be mindful the responsibilities that come along with owning a dog. If your dog is misbehaving you should immediately correct the behavior and recall. Additionally, it is your responsibility to remove your dog from the dog park and de-escalate.

The actual park itself is too small and absolutely not worth it.

Parking is available to the left side of park.

Very well kept enclosed area for dogs. All the dogs looked so happy. My dog would give this place 10 stars but I am only going with 4 because the location is next to a pretty loud and busy road.

The dog run is split into two spaces - one for smaller dogs and one for larger. Always lots of dogs playing there and the owners are responsible and attentive.

I love bringing our little guy to this dog run

Extremely clean and well maintained addition to the south side of Prospect Park. I love taking my dogs so they can socialize. There is some nice shrubbery in the small pup section where my dogs like to explore.
