Dog Park Features
Overview
Perched on a hill above the city, Upper Douglass Dog Play Area is a sprawling, grassy off‑leash haven where dogs can sprint, socialize, and cool off under shady trees. Panoramic views, friendly regulars, and room to roam make it feel like “Dog Disneyland” for San Francisco pups.
Details
Set within Douglass Playground Park, this fully fenced expanse of real grass gives dogs a rare chance to run full tilt, chase friends, or simply sniff along the short trail that loops the perimeter. Owners settle onto benches and scattered chairs along the edges, chatting while keeping an eye on the action, with a convenient water fountain on concrete that helps keep muddy paws to a minimum. Shaded pockets under mature trees and a small wooded area offer a break from the sun, and regular maintenance (including Wednesday closures and seasonal winter closures) keeps the turf in good shape. Expect a relaxed but lively scene with all sizes and breeds sharing one large enclosure, and plenty of space for shy or senior dogs to find their own corner when they need it.
