Awesome place very friendly
Considering this was a run down, empty lot that was fixed up by local citizens, this place is great! It's not a dog park that was created by some local organization, or even the local government. This is simply an empty lot that was cleaned and fixed up by local dog-lovers!
That being said -- it certainly has its ups and downs, like any dog park. Sometimes there will be super friendly people and dogs there, and other times you might encounter a person or dog that is not so friendly. But this is the case at ANY dog park!!!! Dog owners need to be aware of these things at any dog park in the city, and must always be alert.
One thing I really hope they accomplish in the future is a small dog section. Port richmond is home to many different types of dogs, and my tiny dog is one who is often scared to be around very big, high-energy dogs. I know that this is not really possible at the moment, due to the 95 expansion project, but one day I hope to see a small dog section!
Port Richmond is a very dog-friendly neighborhood, and I really appreciate the people in this neighborhood who worked hard to create a safe, enjoyable space for our pups. Keep up the awesome work!!
