This is an interesting dog park. The main area is peastone, but there is a large rock pile/mound at the back of the space that the dogs can climb. Water, bags, trash are all there and park lighting has the dog park open til 9, year round. Trafton park itself is under renovation, which means that getting to the dog park is difficult if you're driving as there is no parking on the street with the main entrance, and the back entrance is blocked.

As much as I love my dog to have time off leash to run around we most likely won't be back. People need to learn how to read the body language of their dog and other dogs before coming in the gate. Entitled, irresponsible dog owners.

Great group of people & their dogs; my dog & I drive over daily as part of our routine/socialization/exercise around the dog park & the general park/neighborhood afterwards.

My Lucy and I love this Dog Park! The dogs love climbing up on the rocks and there's plenty of shade for them to cool off. The park has a new water pump, new benches and folks really love that. Unfortunately, the new stones seem to be a problem for many dogs. They are very small and do get caught in paws. As the only Dog Park in Malden, it's a very happy place 😄

Decent dog park. Unfortunately it’s not well maintained. Due to immature teens, shattered beer bottles are scattered everywhere.
