The run has 2 sections for large and small dogs. Every time I’ve visited, the run has not been a good place for small/medium dogs. Some owners have monopolized the small section for their large and unsocialized/aggressive dogs to separate from the dogs in the main section and deny entry to actually small dogs. Terrible dog run etiquette.
It was actually a good experience for me, I used the outdoor workout stations that's nearby also(approximately 100-150 ft from the 🐕 park. & from what I've noticed, the "daily" Users and their pets love it.
Most visited and most variety of dogs in a dog run anywhere uptown. Has one main and a smaller run for smaller dogs or if a dog needs to be seperate. Highly maintained by neighborhood volunteers. And best dog owner community around. Many people know other dogs and their owners by name.
Great park for dogs if you’re alone. I have gone to this park two separate times, just to have my dog bitten by two different animals with owners not paying attention. Don’t bring your dog to a dog park if they are aggressive or unfriendly. Will not be coming back unfortunately.
Just moved to the area so I can't speak for frequent visits yet but my experience so far has been positive! My dogs interacted with other pups and the park itself was extremely spacious. I love that it offers a nature vibe since it's dirt rather than green turf which makes my pups super confused. Lastly, it looked like they were doing some general maintenance like painting the benches and fence which made me feel like the place is kept up with.
This dog run has enough space for my hound mix to speed run laps for awhile. While there's not a fountain, there's a ramp/stair obstacle and 2 hoops for dogs to play with along with several benches for the people. It's an all around great place for energetic dogs in this city.
Love this place. I can get my kid to run like da wind. My experience with the other kids have been great. No fights yet and sometimes they share a water bowl which is cute. Keep an eye on them and they’ll entertain themselves. Bring poop bag and your own water bowl
Been coming here since it was conceived when I had a pitbull, and 9 years with my Boston Terrier Deebo. Park is well sized and divided into two parts. Small side is NOT for small dogs only. They are welcome in both parks. The smaller side is easier to watch and control your kid(s). The bigger side provides obstacles and run time. Problems ? Of course lol. Some of the new people to the area think that cleaning up after their dog is an "option", it is not ! Also..people need to watch and control their kid(s)..instead of playing on the phone or putting a newspaper in their face. I've broken up many dog fights due to people being "busy". The parks department does a great job here though.
