    Great location, and my puppy loves crawling around the circular benches. But whoever decided to landscape w crab apple trees needs to be fired -- they fall & rot, and my dog is obsessed w eating them.

    Little dogs are more than welcome on the big dog side. Just be cool about it.

    Keep an eye out for the little apples that fall from the trees in the dog park. They are small enough to choke on.

    I love how huge the large dog run is, it allows the rowdy dogs to play, while my chill dog can jump in to play or just play catch with me.

    Go early if you don't want to run into the dog walkers with their packs of dogs and to avoid meddling old ladies that have nothing better to do than watch your dog!

    Best dog run! Spacious, trees, benches, good drainage (no smell!), great views, big & small runs... Another dog park below the highway when it's raining!

    People get this run confused with the one above the Greenway. That's not Riverside Park South. This dog run is under the West Side Highway.

    Beware: While the dogs play nicely, the humans come with drama!

    Kind of dirty but a good, long, open park. The dogs can really run full speed here.
