This charming dog parked is adjoined to a wonderful kids park. The dogs have ample room to run and play. Plenty of water for the pups and benches for the owners. The perimeter of the fence is also fenced off with chicken wire to prevent dogs and balls from going through into the kids park. It’s a great way to let your dog loose and excited.

This our dog's and our family's favorite dog park in South Philadelphia. It offers a large turf area for dogs to romp off leash and a secure, 2-step metal gate to enter. It's the only dog park we've visited that also has a separate gated area for small or timid dogs to relax off leash. There are free poop bags, lots of trash containers and multiple benches for pet parents to hang out. They even provide tennis balls and ball tossers to use. In season, there is a dog water fountain. The park is free and open to all, but regular users are encouraged to pay a voluntary $50 annual membership fee for park maintenance. The park receives no funds from the city. There is a paid parking garage across the street. The Dog Park is accessible 24/7, but realize that the lighting from the adjacent playground is dim if you visit at night. Children are not allowed in the dog park, but there is an adjacent playground. We come before 6am in the winter and our dog has the park to himself. Other dog owners are good at watching their dogs and monitoring for any signs of stress/aggression. Have never had a problem with other dogs here.

policy. My dog’s got just one ball—can’t breed, won’t cause trouble—and he’s training to be a service animal, but still needs his free time to play and unwind. Yet that sign barred us. Neutering shouldn’t be a blanket rule if it doesn’t apply. It’s a public space for all responsible owners, not a breeding ground. Feels discriminatory and overkill. Won’t return until fixed.

Great park. Astroturf, lots of shaded seating, water, poop bags, trash cans in park, tennis balls, aware owners, double gate, free and open to public. Some cons: limited parking, kind of stinky, no separation for large and small dogs. Outer gate 6ft inner gate 4 feet.

My dog loves this park. It’s definitely one of the better ones I’ve taken her to. Everyone is so friendly and they actually pay attention to their dog(s)’ behavior, which is great. There are materials provided to clean up after your dog, and the park is very clean as a result. 10/10, would take Mochi again.
