Dog Friendly Places: Peter’s Park

I have been hearing a lot of great things about Peter’s Park located on Washington Street in the South End. Riley wanted to know what all the buzz was about and boy did we find out! In our first visit, she made about twenty new friends!

The park is completely fenced in with double doors that make it super easy to enter the park and pretty much impossible for your pup to exit without you. What I really loved about the park was that it had a separate play area for small dogs. Now, that doesn’t mean your tiny pooch can’t play with the large dogs. But, if they get a little intimidated by the big guys, they can wrestle around with pup’s their own size in their own fenced in play pen. It made life a lot easier for me since Riley weights 60lbs but thinks she weights about 10lbs, so she tends to think that the little pups can hold their own against her. We are still working on her manors.

What was also very cool about the park was its doggie water fountain. It’s too cold out now to use, but once summer rolls around again, your pup will be pumped to run around in the sprinklers. I’m sure people would like more of a grassy area in the park instead of the rocks that it has. I also would like it to have more grass but the up side is that when it rains, Riley can’t find a lot of mud to roll around in. Finding parking is fairly easy and there are disposable bags at the park which is always a plus. This park is moving up my list very fast because of all the other friendly dogs that we meet there. Definitely check it out!
