Fort Harrison State Park Dog Park is a spacious and welcoming area located within Fort Harrison State Park in Indianapolis. It provides a natural setting for dogs to enjoy off-leash play and exercise. While specific amenities like fenced sections or water features are not detailed, it is a popular destination for dog owners to let their pets socialize and explore.
Every weekend and holiday, weather permitting, Toast and I are at the dog park bright and early. And since spring every day, 6 AM.
Paid membership with proof of all vaccines. Best dog park in IN, with woods, trails, a pond and a fireplace. Gated parking lot and 3 sections, outdoor bathroom. Just like in any dog park, be aware of your dog’s behavior.
Definitely the best dog park in Indianapolis! We’ve been bringing our dog, Sully, here for over a year now and it’s always well kept and even has a fireplace for the really chilly days. We love walking around the small trails and our dog loves making new friends and playing frisbee here.
Bonus is that most other owners that come here are very aware and will step in and correct their dogs if needed, but they also have two other huge play areas if we need to separate from a rowdy pup.
This place is a dogs dream. My boys love being in the woods and they also like being near water. I had been taking them on some nature preserve trails but they of course have to be on a leash. This place has trails, pond, and other areas with no water…all without a leash. One of my dogs doesn’t “play” much. He ends up getting bored at other dog parks so we end up leaving after 20-30min. This place he can explore the trails or just relax in the shade. We usually stay for a minimum of an hour. People even take camping chairs and just make a day of it.
Our Beagle is socially inept. Took to Ft.Ben dog park to acclimate him to other dogs and their parents. It’s starting to work. He runs with the other dogs in this A-1 beautiful setting. There is more than enough space for all dogs to run off excess energy. You get 3 separate parks for the price of one. Very safe, very secure, and no bugs. Well maintained. Highly recommend to any dog owner. The other parents are nice as I’ve ever encountered.
