🐾 Kids at the Dog Park: Real Stories, Safety Risks & Smarter Solutions
If you’ve spent time at an off-leash park, you’ve probably seen it:A parent strolls in with a stroller 🚼 or […]
Main Street Dog Park is a favorite destination for dog owners looking for a large, scenic, and pet-friendly place in Alameda, CA. This well-maintained park features a massive fenced area—roughly the size of three football fields—where large dogs can run, play, and socialize off-leash. The park is mostly grassy with some sandy patches, and offers stunning views of the river, inlet, and bustling shipping activities nearby. It’s a perfect weekend escape for both local residents and visitors from neighboring cities.
Park amenities include picnic tables, scattered seating options, a few shaded areas under mature trees, wheelchair-accessible entrances and parking, and abundant free parking that’s rarely full. While it doesn’t have a separate small dog area or a water source on site, owners bring their own water and enjoy the calm, friendly atmosphere. Whether you’re looking to enjoy a sunny day, meet fellow pet lovers, or grab a treat for your pup at the nearby In-N-Out, Main Street Dog Park offers a safe, welcoming environment for all.
A little far out there, but a great weekend spot to let a big dog run wild. Our friendly giant mastiff had a ball. There were only a couple other pups around, but all friendly. In N Out is nearby also to get a pup patty. We’ll be back.
This is a nice large dog park. The park is for large dogs and there is no small dog section. There is a mix of grass and dirt. It is generally clean. It can be windy and colder than the rest of the area, especially toward sunset
I live in a neighboring City but I always bring my dog to this dog park. Spacious other dog owners are friendly. Always have a good view of my dog. No matter where I am, she always has such a great time by far my favorite dog park in the area.
This is a fenced in outdoor park about the size of 3 football fields in length and 1 wide. There are seats and picnic tables scattered about and one set of chairs underneath a shade tree. The park is mostly grassy with a sandy streak in the middle area. It’s defently one of my favorite dog parks on sunny days. Would 100% recommend to any one who loves being outside with their dog while looking look at the river and inlet and watching insanely HUGE shipping container freightors, get loaded up with huge chains. It’s just a cool park all the way around. 😎😎
My dog and I really like this park, plenty of space. It is not usually very busy. Lots of easy parking. It is mostly grass. Has a couple small shady places. The view is very nice! There are 2 picnic tables and several chairs. The only negative is that there is NO WATER SOURCE, so you must bring water and a bowl with you. There are big empty jugs that the community refills but those are often empty. I rarely see balls laying around so I always bring our own.
