Steele Indian School Dog Park
The City of Phoenix lists this fenced dog park at 300 E Indian School Road, in the east section of Steele Indian School Park. Its published hours are 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily, subject to maintenance closures and posted conditions.
Find the east-side entrance
Phoenix directs dog-park visitors to access the east section of Steele Indian School Park from 7th Street, north of Indian School Road. The city's park map labels separate small- and large-dog areas, nearby parking and restrooms, making it useful to review before the first visit.
Check current closures before leaving
Phoenix schedules seasonal turf recovery and maintenance at its dog parks. Because closure dates can change, use the live facility page and posted signs rather than relying on an older date saved elsewhere.
Know where the amenities are
The city lists the broader 72-acre park as ADA accessible, with drinking fountains, shade structures and restrooms. Those are park-wide amenities, so bring your own water, bowl and waste bags instead of assuming each item is inside the dog enclosure.
Dog-park rules to know
- Keep your dog leashed until you are inside the fenced area and the entrance gates are fully closed.
- Keep your dog in sight and under voice control, clean up waste, and leash up if aggressive behavior appears.
- Dogs must be licensed, currently vaccinated and older than four months; female dogs in heat are not allowed.
- Food, alcohol and smoking are not permitted inside fenced dog-park areas.
- Phoenix advises against bringing children under 12 into its dog parks.

Address and outing plan
Use 300 E Indian School Rd, Phoenix, AZ for the official park address, then follow the city's east-side access guidance from 7th Street. Keep the leash on through the surrounding park and parking areas; off-leash activity is limited to the designated fenced dog park.
What to bring
- A leash for the route to and from the fully closed entrance gates.
- Fresh water, a bowl and waste bags, even when park amenities are available.
- A cooler-hour plan; Phoenix pavement and exposed surfaces can become uncomfortable quickly.
- A backup dog park in case turf work or maintenance closes either enclosure.
