Keene Dog Park
Keene Dog Park, opened in June 2024, is a well-designed and spacious park offering separate areas for small and large dogs. It features ample shade from trees and a peaceful setting with water available for dogs. While the park is wheelchair accessible overall, the parking is located about 500 feet away, making access challenging for handicapped visitors. The park is fenced and a popular spot for dogs to socialize and play.

We love the dog park! My foxhound has so much fun with his friends here.
Huge fenced-in area with shade, water and peaceful setting. One huge negative is that there is no handicap access, all parking is 500 feet away.
All other amenities within Wheelock Park have handicap access, why doesn’t the dog park?
Big park for dogs. Tree stumps everywhere, but considering it took 10 years for volunteers to raise the money and convince the city of Keene to give up some land, it’s understandable. Would have been enormously expensive to remove the stumps and install proper drainage.
I hate putting a 4-star review on what should be a five-star dog park and it would be if the parking wasn’t so far away from the actual park. Not a big deal for folks with regular mobility but if you’re handicapped. Forget it. The only other suggestion I would have is to put waste receptacles within the dog fenced area currently they’re just outside so it makes it a bit awkward you have to leave your pup on supervised while you get rid of it or hold it lol.But they did a really great job other than that really well done it’s nice and shaded. I love that there is two sections for small dogs and then one for regular dogs!. Very nice facility and a wonderful addition to the town I’m sure!
Keene did an amazing job with their new dog park opened in June 2024 I was told. Great shade under the trees and lots of room on the big and small dog sides.
