Pelham Bay Dog Run

The dog run is not on the beach. You can't even see the beach from the typical 2 dog fenced in areas. The path among the beach has lots of broken glass. This isn't much of a place to bring your dog.

It’s a great spot to bring your fur baby. Enough room for your fur baby to run free without going far. Two separate play areas and a water fountain available. There are some rocks to climb on and jump over. There are some shady areas so your fur baby can relax and not get overwhelmed by the heat.

I usually love this dog run but lately there’s been a lot of reactive dogs and owners who still haven’t figure out how to control them. This isn’t a bad thing but it doesn’t make it easy when you are trying to introduce your dog to other dogs or introduce them to leash free environments. Usually everyone is super friend so it’s a good time all around.

Sadly my dog and I were attached a few months ago by dogs that were left in the run so it’s been a bit rough to have my little guy trust going there. We’re going slow but I soon hope he grows to love the dog run again.

It's decent size. Bring toys, there is only 2 community park fetch items. Bring water. The hose for water doesn't work till labor day. Humans need to learn how to pick up after themselves.

Great dog run and not too crowded. Pretty clean and well kept. There's a dog run for small dogs and one for big dogs. My only (small) complaint is there's no water available for the small dogs.
