Schuylkill River Park Dog Run
A city-listed dog run with separate fenced areas for small and large dogs, close to lawns and the Schuylkill Banks riverfront trail.
Dog-run layout
Schuylkill Banks says the park includes two fenced dog parks, one for small dogs and one for large dogs. Use the posted area that fits your dog and follow the rules at the gate.
Location and surroundings
The City lists the dog run at 25th and Spruce Streets. The larger park sits east of the Schuylkill River between Manning and Waverly Streets and includes lawns, a community garden and recreation space.
Build a longer outing
After playtime, switch back to a leash no longer than six feet and continue along the Schuylkill Banks trail. Keep your dog close on shared paths and clean up waste.
Before you go
Conditions and posted rules can change. Check the official page, bring water and waste bags, and leash your dog before leaving the fenced run.
