The park is great. We have a puppy and there is always a playmate for her. We also love that there are big and small dogs there--perfect for our growing pup.
This place was really fun for the dogs. All the owners were also friendly and not snooty. Clean after your own dogs and keep an eye on tennis ball bandit dogs!
You need a Chicago Park district dog tag to user Chicago dog parks. You can get one for $10 from an approved veterinarian https://www.chicagoparkdistrict.com/parks-facilities/dog-friendly-areas
Large, surprisingly clean, and a nice "airlock" style gate system so your dog doesn't busy out when someone else is leaving the park. Wish there were some agility training things, but whatever.
Seriously people. If you are dumber than your dog, don't bring your dog here. Your humping dogs' behavior throws the energy off at the whole park. Calm & Assertive.
People...please don't bring toys from home that you know the dogs will fight over.. I know you think you are being helpful but it does more harm than good..
Wiggly Field was established in 1997 and was Chicago's first "first official dog exercise and play area". The informal name Wiggly Field is a play on words for the nearby historic baseball stadium, Wrigley Field. (The dog park is not, in fact, a field.)
