Great dog run. Like all runs almost all of the dogs that come are nice, well-behaved and playful. Avoid going after it rains (the smells that rise from the ground...whew!). Good shaded areas.
The map is wrong on Foursquare. I have reported the problem. St. Nick's Dog Run is located in St. Nicholas Park near 136th Street within the park in Harlem. Hopefully Foursquare will fix the map.
One of the city’s largest dog runs, featuring a separate run for small dogs, a varied terrain, and a monthly coffee social for dog owners (first Saturday of the month).
