Canine Court

About

This off-leash dog facility operates within Van Cortlandt Park in the Bronx, providing a designated space for dogs to exercise and socialize freely. The park features a fenced area with rock surfacing rather than traditional dirt or grass, allowing pet owners to let their dogs run without leashes in a secure environment. Located at the intersection of Broadway and West 252nd Street, the facility serves as one of several dog runs throughout the expansive Van Cortlandt Park system. The dog run includes agility course elements, distinguishing it from standard off-leash areas by offering additional physical and mental stimulation for visiting dogs. Pet owners can take advantage of the safely enclosed space to allow their dogs to interact with other animals while maintaining proper supervision. The facility operates as part of the broader Van Cortlandt Park recreational offerings, which close at 10:00 PM, providing ample daylight hours for dog exercise and socialization activities.
