River House Dog Park

This is a nice dog park fenced in safe what else can you ask for. The owners have there for my good friends under control.

It was Charlie and my first time at a dog park and seeing the great Unilocal reviews, we headed for River House Dog Park. The Dog Park is located right BEHIND the River House «Ashley» Building closer to N. Joyce and 15^th St.
The park is gate enclosed, gravel paved for the pup paws and benches for the humans. There is even a sectioned off area for smaller dogs but there were no small dogs when we went so Charlie was sent to play with the big boys and boy oh boy is he a ballbuster hehe. Dogs and their owners are real nice and friendly. There are doggie bags in case you need to clean up your pups’ mess (everyone is good about it) and there is a water fountain if the pups needs it (Poor Charlie couldn’t reach haha so we gave him a boost).
All in all, River House has a great dog park, Charlie made lots of new friends, came home tired and mommy was happy!

This is a private park for residents of RiverHouse (you need a key to get in). Dog park is great. Separate area for small dogs. Water fountain and dog bags. Plenty of benches.

5-​stars for the people who are pretty awesome there.
1-​star for the management company that has taken at least 4 months to fix the front gate that is STILL not locking.

for what is probably the premier dog community on the planet.

Technically, the River House Dog Park is only open to residences, BUT as long as you can find street parking, there isn’t anything stopping anyone else from bringing their well behaved pooch here.
This is a smaller, gravel park, with a «small dog» area separate from larger dogs (great to keep the more timid smaller dogs away from some of the more boisterous pups), and is located behind «The Ashley» building within the River House Apartments complex.
In general, owners are considerate. Everyone picks up their dogs poop, and all the dogs/​owners have seemed to gotten to know the behaviors enough so if a dog starts acting out they get taken out and it doesn’t become an issue.
There are benches on the inside as well as outside, even non-​dog owners are welcome :)
I’m extremely happy that this is here now, River House was already super dog friendly (literally the only apartment complex in Arlington that allows two dogs per apartment up to 100 lbs each), but the recent dog park addition is the bees knees!
