Dog park
Dog Park at Fort Riley offers a large, open space with plenty of room for dogs to run and play, including a designated small dog area. The park features picnic tables, some shaded areas with trees, and seating options like benches. Parking is available just outside the fence, and there are large trash cans near the entrance, though inside the park garbage cans are lacking and maintenance issues like broken dog ramps and short fencing have been noted. Water fountains are present but may not always be operational. Off-leash play is allowed, but caution is advised due to fence height concerns, especially outside the small dog area.

The size of this lot is impressive. Two football fields long and another football field wide. Could definitely use a trashcan (people leave the bags their in a pile) and more secure gates at both ends, not to mention the small dog area needs mending. We do enjoy having the space to run!
Large open area. A few bench tables. Nice shade trees. No garbage cans.
This place and its dog parks are trash and disgusting! Everywhere on this base is trash flying around purposely left and no one cares. They should be disgusted with this. But nope. they say they can’t do anything about it from the base. And yes, it’s many trash bags of doggy poo in the entrance of walking in.
Awesome dog park with lots and lots of room to run! Water fountain that I tried wasn’t working so maybe bring your own water! The dog ramp was broken also! Dogs don’t care so still a 10/10. Huge trash cans right outside the fence as well and a decent amount of parking
the entire east wall is too short, ranging from 3-5 feet high, to keep in even a medium sized dog. my dog only weighs 30lbs and isn’t as tall as my knees but was able to jump over the wall in the south east corner. I was quick enough to grab her before she jumped off the top of the wall into the neighborhood on the other side so I got lucky.
if you take your dog here make sure to keep them on a leash and only take it off if you’re in the small dog area as that’s the only space in which the walls are the proper height.
they either need to build the walls up higher or dig the dirt around the wall 3 feet deeper for it to be safe to let your dog roam freely.
