A bunch of pretentious **@*%# people go here. I arrived to the dog park unaware of it entry rules. I am a visitor to the "city of brotherly love" driving up north from Florida. The green street area is far from brotherly love BUT THE OPPOSITE. when I arrived at the gate a lady quickly closed behind me. I noticed a key fob system setup to allow you into the green street dog park. Never NEVER!, have I seen such a thing. I have traveled to many dog park and my dog is with me every day every hour. I haven't reported on all the dog parks that I've been to. But this place has to be the worst. The people in the dog park look at you and don't say a thing. The thoughts that have gone through their mind, as I heard one woman comment to the woman that just entered before I arrived told her, "you did the right thing". As I pondered what my next step. I walked around the block. Read up on the web site and and couldn't find anything about this dog park being entirely funded by membership fee. Yes there is a membership fee. If I lived in Philly I would get the lawyers involved, civil right advocates. Red lining protest. ....so if anyone who reads this in philly. Get your collaboration together. I don't believe that this is altogether a privately owned piece of land. And certainly some government money went into this dog park. And their website doesn't support that it is entirely funded by membership fees.

Every bad review here is because people are mad that it's private. Every member loves it. Great park. $50 annual fee for locals, $100 for non locals. The fees go to keeping poop bags on site, nightly removal of used poop bags, running water, maintenance, etc. Stop whining.

This is one of our favorite dog parks, completely fenced, all the people know each other and the dogs and owners are always aware. The place is kept very clean and hours are accurate. I only give it a 4 star review because there are some areas (the fence dividing the 2 areas) and the one against the sidewalk that could be a hazard for your dog if their paws get stuck.

Great community dog park and everyone there is very friendly and great about cleaning up after their dogs. It’s my dog’s favorite place next to her doggie daycare. You have to apply for a membership but it’s nice to know everyone there is a responsible dog owner (everyone is watching their dogs and if play gets rough, it’s broken up very quickly). The membership fee already paid for itself in the first month of us going there.

I wanted to check this place out before I got a "membership", but the people today just seemed very snotty. There was one nice guy, but I asked if my dog (12 lb) could play on the big dog section because there were no little dogs, and he loves big dogs, and they just looked at each other and laughed. Not paying for a membership for something like that. Plenty of free dog parks with normal people in the city. Yikes

Private part. Gotta pay expensive membership. And because of this, I feel like the members are so rude. They’ll close the door on you because “if you’re not a member, you can’t come in”. I wouldn’t want have my dog or myself around people like that. Dog parks should be free or really cheap to join. Oh by the way, there’s so many rules here too, like you can’t even bring your own water. -_-
