This dedicated off-leash area within Washington Square Park serves dogs weighing 25 pounds or under, providing a secure environment for smaller breeds to exercise and socialize. Located between Thompson Street and LaGuardia Place in Greenwich Village, the facility operates daily from 6 AM to midnight and can be accessed via the park's southern pathway. The fenced space allows pet owners to let their dogs play freely while connecting with other members of the local dog community. The facility is maintained through community volunteer efforts and supported by the Washington Square Park Conservancy, which coordinates upkeep activities and provides necessary supplies. Regular maintenance includes gravel tilling and deodorizing services performed twice yearly to ensure clean conditions for visiting pets. The conservancy also organizes special events, including an annual Halloween celebration for dogs each October, creating additional opportunities for socialization and community engagement among local pet owners.
