This is a pretty solid dog park in Little Rock, it's particularly open and pretty for a dog park, and has really central water stations, and tends to get one of the better crowds of both dogs and dog owners. It's also the most central of a lot of the ones I've been to, easily walkable from SOMA and Downtown, and even the Clinton Library if you're especially determined.
It's nestled in the Southeastern corner of MacArthur Park, all in all a great place to walk around and enjoy a day outside, or catch a museum visit (I hear the brunch at the art museum is terrific!) and it's a nice perk for us dog owners to have a spot where we can let the furbabies run off-leash for a little while.
There are some hills to get your fetch-oriented dogs extra tired, and some cool rock sculptures that dogs love to run through.
It gets a few demerits that are mostly seasonal: it's the muddiest of the parks I've gone to (even more so than Burns, which was a shock) and it also has almost no shade, so if you're there on a hot day, be prepared to have no escape in this park. Still, that also makes it one of the best places to go when the weather is ideal :) read more
