Love the size and layout of this dog park! You can take a walk down the trail to keep your pet moving and interact with different dogs for short periods of time or stock around in one spot if they are exploring or having a good time. There's access to water for swimming, but beware because some dogs have negative reactions to their skin or their bellies (if they ingest the water). And there is a separate small dog area as well that is also quite sizeable. There's free parking as well. Gem of a location!

My dogs love it here! The small dog area is too small for them to really run and play but they are big enough to go into the big dog area and feel comfortable. The only down side is that it gets pretty muddy when it rains. Also the water station area in the middle of the park is always muddy because of water spills. But for area and socialization this place is great!

Fantabulous! The dog park of all dog parks! It's somewhere between a quarter mile and a half mile of a center paved walkway with play area along both sides of the walkway. There are tons and tons of dogs there almost all the time! There was one time when it was super icy rain and I thought I would certainly be the only one out, but there were at least 10 to 20 other people who visited and left while I was there. Lots of fun at all times and all-weather! During the warmer months, the dogs can go play in the river that goes alongside the closed in dog park. There is a little gate on either end of the dog park that allows you to go directly down towards the water. You have to be able to walk or climb down a short Rocky hill , but it's not difficult.

Fantastic play area which we parked a bit far from not aware that the play area was on the other side of the park. Shirlington park is beautiful and quiet. Really nice that you see a small stream and there are recreational fields for softball and so forth. Lots of places to sit at the actual playground.

Nice for walks, has some installation that can be used for exercise…good thing that they provide clear instructions to each of them. Lovely watching the dogs enjoy nature on the other side of water.

Best dog park in the DC-VA area. Has a huge off-leash area with tons of trees and a stream for dogs to play in. Be warmed that playing in the stream may not be recommended for some dogs, as bacteria level can be high. Highly recommend, must visit if you have a dog!

This park is not near my home, but it's the best dog park in the area, so I make the drive to it.
Lots of room for dogs to run, a water fountain and access to a natural creek for playing in the water. Free dog bags and benches for owners to sit while watching their pets.
Like all dog parks, there's the usual problem of owners not picking up after their pets, so don't wear sandals here. And, you'll also have to watch out for people more worried about taking Instagram photos than watching their aggressive dogs, but it's still the best dog park around.

I love this park. There's plenty of space and doors that face the river so dogs can play in the water.

This is one of the best dog parks anywhere in northern Virginia. It has a very long fenced-in area with plenty of shade for the dogs to play. The highlight of the park is the river that runs through it which the dogs get to play in. I highly recommend bringing your puppers here.

Definitely a great park for the dogs. Has a long run out for the dogs to stretch their legs. Plenty of trash cans. I believe all of the bags though are on a donation basis so bring your own and don't forget to pick up after your doggo! There are also two areas for the dogs to swim. One has steps that go down and the water is a bit more shallow. The other is a bit rough to get down to due to no steps but the water gets deeper for the taller dogs to swim. Would highly recommend to anyone!

My diva Sophia love this park! it a little far for us, but I love see her face and how much she enjoy when she go there.

A great place to wear out a high energy dog! Our pup loves the creek that is just below the main run.

Great dog park. Long main trail for lots of running plus a creek you can get in with your dog. Our favorite dog park in Arlington so far.

I like the set up for the dog park to walk along the water, go down to the water and let the pups play, then let them dry out on the walk back. We have a 20lb mix who loves to play with the other dogs and in the water. Most owners are pretty close by and keep good supervision on their pups. They have a good number of clean up stations with bags.
Parking could definitely be better and it's annoying to pay for parking but it makes my dog so incredibly happy that a few bucks is worth it.

Love this place so much! It’s always busy so you’re guaranteed to have other pups for yours to play with. People keep it clean and watch their dogs well. The creek access is awesome but make sure your dog is fully vaccinated in case they want to swim, because the water is not necessarily treated. We come every other week now and my dog loves it.

It's a fun place to take my cat on our daily walks. We enjoy climbing the rocks and adventuring into the woods.

Great dog park. Lots of other dogs, tons of room to run, and access to the river if you want to climb down and let your dog in the water. Most folks pick up after themselves so it's always fairly clean. There are a few self-service dog wash businesses nearby as well if you have an especially dirty adventure.

My dog had a blast!! It's a very nice place.
