    This is a local dog park that has a good area for any dogs to play or walk around. I've been here a few times already with my dog and she seems to like it. We'll be going back again shortly.

    I can only comment about the mornings as that's when I bring my dogs but this is a great dog park. We've been going here regularly for almost a year. Very friendly people in the morning who love their pets. When we first came we didn't know anyone or how our dog would react but after a few visits people knew our names and our pup. We adopted our second pup from this park. I find it really strange that people would complain about the groups formed here as everyone is so nice here, warm and inviting. As a younger couple with 2 small dogs, who don't look like the typical dog park people, we were welcomed and look forward to our mornings here. We consider this dog park a haven for our pups. Our pups are familiar now with everyone and have their "pup friends" they play with. It's nice. Tips if you're new to the park - just introduce yourself like everyone else does. That's what we did! Include yourself in and don't sit away from everyone. I notice that people will sit in corners so everyone assumes you want to be left alone, so people do!... if you complain about not being accepted, don't exclude yourself. I only wish there was more available on the smaller dog side. Like grass or something. Over all- great community dog park.

    Who let the dogs out {woof, woof, woof, woof} I don't know who let ALL the dogs out, because I only let one out, and his name is Sherlock, my English bulldog. Dog parks are places that I'm not too familiar with, seeing is that I have never owned a dog before. So when I finally got Sherlock, I figured it was a good time for me to check one out for the first time. Since this dog park is pretty close to my place, I figured I would walk Sherlock over there and check it out. When we got there it was somewhat deserted, but since Sherlock is still young, the lack of dogs in the park was a good thing. The park itself has two areas, one for larger dogs and one for smaller dogs. They also provide baggies for you to pick up your dogs droppings. The park also has plenty of trees so on those hot days there is plenty of trees to keep you and your dog cool. One thing I noticed about this park is that they do not have any water faucets or fountains around and I was told that most parks do provide these things in case your pooch gets thirsty. All in all this is a pretty cool park. Sherlock had lots of fun meeting new dogs. He played with a few daschund's for a while and even went over to the gate that separates the large dogs from the small ones and said hello to a big Rottweiler, who barked at him and literally scared the crap out of him because he pooped just seconds afterwards. I know I will be back here again soon.

    My dog was bit here today by a large dog in the small section. I just left the vet and my dog is going to live but good grief. I handled it pretty cooly because I thought when he finally did get bit there that he would die. To see him walk it off was so reassuring to me and made me so grateful that to be anything other than civil with the other dog's owner would have been a waste of time. But please people with large dogs, do not bring your large dogs into the small dog section. If you have a small dog, I recommend that you not bring them here but if you do and you are faced with a large dog in the small section, say something to the large dog owner and stand your ground. There are regulars who come to Uptown Dog Park (like Gayle or Tracey) who will tell those that break the rules to stop or leave but they can't be there all day policing people. Listen to your gut and keep your eyes open. I have noticed more and more dog owners bringing their large to medium sized dogs into the small dog section despite the codified rules stating dogs more than 25 pounds cannot be in the small dog section. It must be comforting for those who decide to casually break that rule to know that their dog would win in an unfair fight but for the rest of us who observe those rules and cherish our small dogs, it is a nightmare to imagine. After observing this over several months I knew, given the amount of times I witnessed a large dog in the small dog section vs. the amount of times I brought my dog to the park, that an event would occur. I continued to bring my dog here because I thought it made him happy. I thought a lot of my worrying was "new mom" nerves but in the end, my mama intuition was right and I should have listened to it. I love Fred. I don't know what my life would be like if I were writing this review right now without him next to me. Be careful if you bring your small pup here. There are no guarantees, you know?

    my dog romping around

    A new dog park in the area!! I was so excited to go check it out, as was my dog. She always loves exploring new places. I heard of this dog park from Andrea V. And thought it was about time to check it out! So we got her in the car and headed to long beach. The dog park was easy to find with large visible signs from the main street. It's located within Scherer Park. What I liked: - separation of large and small dogs - poopie bags and trash can for disposal - nice tall trees with lots of shade What I didn't like: -no water bowls around, or a fountain or even a hose -space was limited, it was a pretty small dog park, even though the park was large enough to accomodate a larger dog park. - dogs are agressive in Long Beach! haha, you gotta be tough to live here. But overall this dog park was A-OK. I will be back because its nearby and Nani enjoyed running around with other dogs...but bring your own water and balls to throw around.

    Found this place on yelp, been here a few times. Nice people, and the best part, surprisingly a lot of husky owners! Huge place for my boy gray to run around and play.

    Doggies playing in the small dogs section!

    This is the best dog park I've been to in Long Beach. I like that there's a section for big dogs and small dogs. Everyone I've come across are friendly and so far, have not had any problems with my dog or other dogs. it's pretty well kept on the small dogs area, where we always go. It's a nice spot, considering it's surrounded by a nice, shady park all around. Several water fountains for dogs and plenty of doggie poop bags and even a pooper scooper to use right away! We come here at least 2-3 times a week!

    Winston and his favorite ball

    I've been coming here for a couple of months now and Winston and I have no complaints. Once in a while we do have a dog or two whom see to like our ball and take it, but it's alright. As long as I get it back. I come different times of day, for the most part it's fairly quiet and tranquil in the mornings. I've been here in the evening as well as same goes for then. No grass is located in the closed off area. You have to different sections. Big dogs and small dogs. Smaller area for small and bigger area for bigger dogs of course. Take care of your dog, keep an eye on em and you'll be fine. Once in awhile you do have aggressive dogs but once that occurs express your concern! As I said no complaints. My little dude enjoys running around and running after his ball. Don't bother him or his ball and all is well.

    I try to bring my pup to the dog park before giving him a bath. Might as well let him get more…read moredirty before he gets all clean. And we do have a go-to dog park for occasions like this, but given an all-day free Saturday, I thought about checking out a new place. And that's how we found this spot. It is what most Yelpers say what it is: small. Prime (my fur baby) is more used to one of those large dirt and grass kinda areas. He enjoyed it anyway since he met new fur-friends and got to play with them for a bit. It worked out even better since my cousin met us there to bring his fur baby to a dog park for the very first time. This was a good first run for him - I figure it a good idea start him out in a small area to see how how reacts with other dogs and mostly so he doesn't get too overwhelmed. From the looks of it, it's safe to say that enjoyed his very first dog park run. Doggy bags and water fountains are provided for both pups and hoomans alike. There are also benches available. Parking is available, both private and street. It is very well maintained, but as small as it is, it shouldn't be that much of an issue. Alas, as nice and clean as it is, we probably won't be back. It just isn't big enough for my pup to run around. However! If you and your pup are more into just chillin', then this is the place.

    It's a small but well-planned dog park. I think it was built in 2018 by Mayor Wilson (according to…read morethe plaque). It's directly under the gigantic sign for Signal Hill Auto Square. Despite its small size, there are distinct sections for dogs over 35 lbs and dogs under 35 lbs. The poop-bag dispenser is well stocked, and the doggy drinking fountain works well too. There isn't too much shade for the humans, but there are plenty of benches. Parking is easy (only about ten parking spots).

Cleaning their needles and stretching their rubber bands. We will not be coming back to this park or neighborhood area ever again. Original 4 Star Review: This dog park is tucked away in a neighborhood and has lots of big trees which creates awesome shade during a sunny day. There is a big dog park and small dog park separated by a fence. There is grass mixed in with dirt but it's a nice big area for dogs to run around and have fun. The water is outside the park fence so that's a bummer but not deal breaker. There is plenty of poo on the ground but it's mainly around the fence line so just watch your step. I'm pretty disgusted by the other owner that showed up to the small park (I'm in the big park). She literally dropped her dog over the fence and sat in her car for 15 mins talking on the phone. During this time her dog had pooped multiple times. She eventually went in but didn't pick it up. Filthy. Its not hard to pick up after your dog to keep places clean. I'm giving the park 4 stars and think it's a shame because if people picked up after their dogs it would be a fabulous park.
