Technically, the River House Dog Park is only open to residences, BUT as long as you can find street parking, there isn't anything stopping anyone else from bringing their well behaved pooch here.
This is a smaller, gravel park, with a "small dog" area separate from larger dogs (great to keep the more timid smaller dogs away from some of the more boisterous pups), and is located behind "The Ashley" building within the River House Apartments complex.
In general, owners are considerate. Everyone picks up their dogs poop, and all the dogs/owners have seemed to gotten to know the behaviors enough so if a dog starts acting out they get taken out and it doesn't become an issue.
There are benches on the inside as well as outside, even non-dog owners are welcome :)
I'm extremely happy that this is here now, River House was already super dog friendly (literally the only apartment complex in Arlington that allows two dogs per apartment up to 100 lbs each), but the recent dog park addition is the bees knees! read more
