There does seem to be water stations as well but it's winter so haven't seen them in action. They have three pickup stations so you don't even have to bring your own bags which is extremely convenient. They're the good bags too - the ones you stick your whole hand in so there's no mess. The only downside (like much of the world) are the people that come sometimes. Some people don't pick up after their dogs for whatever reason even though there's no reason not to. Currently because it's been so cold there are several dog turds that are frozen to the ground. Hope it's better maintained in the warmer months.

Parking could be tricky since it's downtown but since it's COVID times, you can snag a spot on Adams pretty easily. There's also a parking garage under the park.

The one off-putting thing I've noticed is some people treat this place like it is their private yard and will bring reactive or aggressive dogs here. I have had someone sit in their car waiting for me and my dog to leave so they can come in with their dog who "doesn't like other dogs". Also, my dog escaped once because someone didn't close both doors. So, like any dog park, or place in public really, the real menace is people messing things up.

Don't go much anymore with the new dog, he's quite unruly and not so well behaved, except to my dad. We would go on the weekends mostly. My parent's dog, Tucker was super easy going and got on with most dogs, so this was a great place for him to run around and sniff out new friends, literally and run around and burn off energy. He loved the winters here or anywhere, best. This is a nice dog park, they have a fountain for the dog water and even have a gazebo for them to get some shade for a spell too. A very open space for dogs to run and play, a most favorite spot for parent's dog. The new dog likes it as much, but he doesn't get on as well with dogs as the last.

If I had only read the Yelp review before I stopped by, I would have known that I wasn't going to be allowed in the dog park, but I didn't (sigh), and so I swung by there with the canine, and was crestfallen when I realized I made the trip for nothing. My salvation came when a kind resident who was there took pity on us, and used his electronic fob to let us in. Although, maybe his motives were not completely altruistic - I think he saw a potential playmate for his dog in the bargain. Which was a pretty good assumption. He told me he wasn't supposed to let me in, and he'd get in trouble if someone found out, so I appreciate that. It's a great little dog park, but that is moot unless you have access, and so, I can't go for a repeat visit. It was just blind dumb luck someone let me in, and I'm certain even he wouldn't have done that except for the fact that no one else was there at the time. C'est la vie!

First and foremost, something IMPORTANT - if you click on, "Get directions" while in the Yelp…read moreapplication, you will be sent to the wrong place by Google. I'm assuming someone must have done the "find my location" drill originally when determining the location, and the GPS satellite was a little off that day, because if you follow the directions given on your phone, you're going to end up someplace else besides the park. Where will you end up, exactly? You will end up in the middle of Interstate 94, about half a mile away from the dog park, and you will be going around 70 mph when your GPS announces, "You have arrived at your destination". I've done it twice with the same result, in the same spot on I-94. Put in "Statler-Maloof Dog Park, St. Clair Shores" in your GPS, or, if it can't find that, put in "Brys Park, St. Clair Shores" in your GPS (the dog park is within the boundaries of the larger Brys Park), and that should get you to the right place. It's pretty close to where Harper and 8-Mile Road intersect. That housekeeping item aside, this is a great dog park. Additionally, it's open to BOTH residents and non-residents of St. Clair Shores alike. But, don't even bother going there until you complete the application process first, because you and Taffy/Killer/Spot/Duke/Coco/Diablo/Zoe/Bear, etc., won't be getting in without the electronic passkey (it's a key fob, in this instance) that you get after you get through the membership application. You can get an application at the dog park, online, or, have one mailed to you if you call up the department that handles it at City Hall. Yes, it's a pain to fill out the application, get all the dog's paperwork, and then take those things to the St. Clair Shores City Hall, where, if everything's in order, and you give them some money, they conditionally approve you as a member. It's conditional because you also must return later for an "Etiquette" class (not the dog, just you), and then, and only then, your electronic key fob is activated, and you and your canine quadruped can get through the gates, and use the park. You know something? It is totally worth it. Good people there, good dogs there, it's all so very copasetic. Definitely recommend!

We didn't have a fenced in yard and my pup just needed somewhere to run. City requirements made me so much more comfortable with the other dogs in the park, knowing that they were also vaccinated and registered. The secured entry ensures that not just any dog off the street can wander in. The other dog owners are friendly and responsible. Everyone keeps a close eye on their pet to ensure that play doesn't get too rough and poo is picked up. If someone misses their dog pooing, other folks will either help find the 'land mine' or often pick it up for them. There are multiple water bowls and a faucet with fresh water to fill them up at (which owners take turns doing regularly). There are two separate play spaces, one that's ~four acres and another that's for small dogs under 22lbs. The facility contains several benches and waste receptacles with free dog waste bags. The many "regulars" at this park form an awesome community. Everyone chips in to keep the park in tip top shape, owners know almost all of the others dogs' names, watch out for each other's pets and share both funny stories and useful info that can only come from another dog lover. There's even a playground outside of the park for the kiddos - dog park outings are fun and active for our whole family!

Only wish there was more trees within the dog area because shade makes for happier dogs and humans. So far all dog people seem kind, professional and aware of surroundings.

Nate and I stopped in on our most recent visit to Detroit and had a lovely experience. The space is tucked away but had a surprising amount of outdoor space--we were there in January but I'd love to come back in the summer. We were greeted right away and given a spot near the bar. The menu includes cocktails, lots of wine, and several tasty food options. It was quite busy inside, so it took a bit of time for our server to come over to us, but we weren't in a rush. They had ten cocktails on their list and I tried the bullet proof soul and Nate got the negroni alla perra. The ingredients list for some of the cocktails include things I've never heard of, but at a place like this, I just know it's going to be good. Our drinks were perfectly balanced and very tasty. We also ordered the mortadella sandwich to split--this was delicious. It was pretty messy, but worth it. It was perfectly toasted and full of mortadella. Everything on the menu sounded delicious and I would love to try more of the food options. Can't wait to visit again!
