Franciscan Park is a 2.5 acre fully fenced-in park in the Federal Hill Neighborhood of Providence…read more It is not officially a dog park, but is only used by dog owners and walkers. It is a nice park with lots of shade from large trees and a paved walking trail. There are some dusty areas from high traffic, but this park, unlike Dexter or Gano, is large enough that it still supports a lot of grass. The park is well appointed with trash cans, benches, and communal water bowls. There are two gates: one on Ridge St, and one at the end of Bell St. However, neither latches, so watch out if you have a tiny dog or a dog that likes to push open doors! There is a lot more parking on Ridge St. The park has a strict closing time of 9pm, and there are no lights - throughout the park are scattered remnants of old light posts with capped off wires. Probably best to keep your dogs or kids from playing with them.

If I had written this post prior to this weekend I would be giving all 5 stars. Unfortunately,…read moreirresponsible people and more specifically, their dogs, have let me to drop a star. Lets start with the park itself. If you're looking for it via your GPS it's smarter to do Pond Street North in Seekonk, as the park is right on the line. Once you get close you'll start to see signs for the dog park. It's right across the street from the Animal Shelter which (if you read the story below) is a good thing. The park has a large dog side and a small dog side. My dog is just over 30lbs and loves to play with big dogs, so we are often found on that side. Most time, the small dog side not occupied. There are water bowls and free water, as well as poop bags and trash bins. There are also a few benches, which on hot days, the dogs will dig under and lay. The land itself has grassy spots and also bark mulch/sticks in some areas, which turn into chew toys for some. All in all, it is a very nice dog park. STORY TIME! Last Saturday, I had been at the park for about an hour and a half. My dog, Lincoln, had been playing with a variety of different dogs big and small. They had been slowing down when a couple with their bulldogs (Brazilian Bulldog and Blue Southern something or other) enter the park. All seemed well for the start. Their dogs didn't seem very interested in running around or playing, which could have been the weather. In an attempt to stay relatively close to Lincoln, I switched benches and over heard a conversation about the woman's bulldogs get "attacked" by a husky/malamute mix that was a regular there. She stated that she thought this dog had to be a wolf hybrid mix and how she Googled it and blah blah blah. If it is the dog I know of, I find this highly unlikely, since this dog plays great with my small dog. No sooner am I thinking this, that one of her bulldogs LUNGES at Lincoln. He begins yelping at the top of his lungs and running, tail between his legs. It started quite a commotion with all owners running after their dogs and trying to break it up. The woman threw water at them and then literally laid her body down on top of the dog to get it to stop. I promptly got my very shaken up dog and see a woman from the Animal Shelter running over to make sure all was okay. We checked Lincoln over for blood and she made a wild guess as to which dog it was, yes, the bulldogs! She said they had been in a few other altercations and unfortunately they don't have a "three strikes and you're out rule" or else they would be gone. Moral of the story, if you see this blonde woman with her two bulldogs... steer clear! I will not stop coming here, but I will absolutely leave if I see her, or at least switch sides. To seal the deal she remained quiet as a mouse as I left. No apology, no acknowledgement, no nothing. Pretty unfortunate.

If you pull in straight and go all the way out to the field you see in front of you there is a side road you can go down and keep going straight and then you end up at the dog park. Compared to a lot of other dog parks this place is pretty small. It's not easy to find unfortunately and not well publicized. there is dogshit everywhere clearly people don't pick up after themselves here which is unfortunate. Dog parks like the one in Millbury Massachusetts, Wrentham Massachusetts, The Franciscan dog park in Providence, etc. Are not remotely on the same level. This place is not nearly as nice and there are never any dogs here (though clearly they must visit sometimes because of the disgusting dog poop left here for ages.) There are a couple cute benches, four to be exact. there are a few cleanup stations which makes me wonder why people don't clean up after their dogs? Anyway, it would definitely not be the first dog park I would recommend but if you have a dog that is antisocial maybe this is the park for you

Also across the street is Dune Bros, so when you visit Rose Larisa, you can get some clam cakes & chowder and go eat in the park with a water view. I especially like the wooden staircases that take you down to the water. Although the beach is not very wide, it is long enough for a walk and leashed dogs are allowed on the beach as well. Rose Larisa is a great place to watch the sunset, and there is plenty of free parking. This park also is home to the annual RI Folk Festival and the city of East Providence also presents summer concerts here so go check out some local live music!
