Don't bring a squeaky ball here if you really want to leave with it. They get most dogs very excited and some won't let you have it back. Can also cause the occasional fight...
Spend some quality time with your licensed pup at the West 87th St. Dog Run. For info on dog licensing visit: http://on.nyc.gov/M85uPu. For more info about dog runs visit: http://bit.ly/Ra5S4w
Pretty dirty run, avoid after recent rain. Keep an eye out for random people without dogs entering as they are careless with gates. Separate small run available, as well as hose for water.
Buy a green lazer for $20 bucks at amazon and have your dog chase it up and down the run when there are no other dogs to play with. Great workout... At least for the dog.
