Plaza de California

I've been bringing my neighbors dog here since she was a pup 7yrs ago. Now I bring my own baby here,and she loves it❤️😊 she is 6mths old. It's is quite peaceful here despite being surrounded by traffic. Many owners with their pooches bring them here for socialization and Comradery both human and dog alike. Nonetheless its get away from the hustle and bustle for all the different pooches. And just a few blocks away from alot of important landmarks of interest.

The park is outside the LAPD building. Unofficially it is known as dog park.

A nice easy spot to take your dog at all times of the day. Its not technically a leash free park but most dogs aren't on leashes so beware if your dog can't be off leash. I wish they would get the sprinkler timing to be a little later in the evening. After 10pm would be great.

I walked by last night (no dog with me) and was astonished at how well-behaved the dogs were. People are super nice too! If your dog is well-socialized and won’t run off, this seems to be an open secret. Definitely worth a look.

If you know your dog is good off a leash and friendly this is perfect. People are friendly and the other dogs have been friendly. Worth noting this is NOT fenced in. Hint the "good off a leash" and may not technically be a dog park. But people use it as one and it's a great open option to throw the ball with your pup, or just get them out.
