Cute park in a shady spot in the middle of downtown San Jose. Most of the dogs are nice, mostly big dogs but I bring my small Havanese to this park and it’s usually fine. One thing is that it smells like dog poop even when owners picked the poop, the fake grass may need to be power washed because the smell is rancid.

Was surprised to find this little park in the heart of downtown. It was a nice little place to have a dog run around without their leashes. Doggie bags are provided but there is no water, so be sure to bring some along. Plenty of seating border the park, a few planters, logs and an amazing mural make this park fantastic 😀

Right downtown on Santa Clara! I didn't know what to expect. Turns out is is worth the 1.5 mile walk. Very nice, tiny, clean dog park with nice people and the dogs are great. I don't know if they have water cause I always bring ours. You might want to bring water just in case. Sorry about the lousey shots, I really don't do photography.

I bring my buddies dog, Penny,an 8 month old lab here to play with the other dogs and tire her out. She loves it here. Also, whoever maintains the park, SHOULD INSTALL A WATER SYSTEM FOR THE DOGS. And the dispensary for the poop bags needs to be refilled regularly.

Very small and no parking that isn't metered. This is mostly a place for tiny dogs to poop or pee in the m8ddle if downtown.
