My furry friends and i have Always loved this dog run😊
Dogs are great. Dog owners are too. Folks are attentive, responsive, and I haven’t experienced any significant doggy conflicts. On occasion, a responsible owners has chosen to leave for another time/day, instead of pressing a bad situation. Commendable!! Dog run is serviceable, but would benefit from better grounds maintenance/material and more sensible hours. Newly posted hours (8am-Dusk) are to late for morning pre-workday use and to early (mid autumn, all winter, mid spring) for “evening” closing hours. Something I hope is reviewed and adjusted soon. It is an asset to this community and a safe space for dogs, dog owners and residents of NYC.
I’ve been to this dog park many times. I do agree if a dog is aggressive warn other owners and keep them on leash so it’s not possible for other dogs just trying to have fun at risk of seriously getting injured. I get it people want to teach them to be social but when it’s crowded it’s best to not have the aggressive dog inside. The dog park is big and roomy enough. Please owners be considerate for others and your own pet safety. I also want to say if there’s rough playing in the park that day I also recommend those owners to judge the park first before entering. It’s best to always be careful. Sadly temporarily closed the dogs need that energy burn. Hopefully it opens again soon.
Newly furnished and beautiful. One of the best small dog parks ever.
Beautifully renovated dog run with puppy turf, a water source, with separate large and small dog areas. The neighborhood and community group really worked hard to get this park renovated, so everyone really takes pride in keeping it maintained. Dogs are super friendly, and owners very responsible. If you visit, please make sure to respect the rules and clean up after your dog (cleaners, bags, and scoops are all provided- so no excuses); and supervise your pet to ensure the continued pleasant experiences for everyone.
