Laclede's Landing Dog Park

There's no grass at all here! It's ok if u wanna take a break to let ur dog off leash but crappy for dogs!

The first time I went to this dog park about a month ago, it was all just mulch. Went again recently and it was completely redone. They put in grass and made the area bigger.

First off, parking. Couldn’t find any free parking. Parked in the lot on a Thursday morning for $2/hr I believe No street side parking nearby that I could find Water was not available, maybe turned off? (February) and no doggy bags. Spots where doggy bags should be provided we’re empty. The park itself was somewhat fun, with the bridge and all. Some (homeless?) would walk by and comment at the dogs, so keep in mind it is a fairly public place. The support for the bridge also made it difficult to kick the ball long distances, if your dog is a ball fetch dog

Yes! Finally a well thought out and fun dog park in city limits. One entrance + Open all the time. Located under the MLK bridge. Easy to find. Pretty windy here the day we visited. Dog bags and trash cans are plentiful. Lots of fun permanent obstacles. Drinking water fountains for dogs and their humans.

The Laclede's Landing Neighborhood totally revamped this park in 2021 and created a great space for Downtown pups. It is clean and really big and protected from rain and snow by the bridge above so the dogs can continue to play in bad weather! Best part of all is that it is free! One of the only free parks in the entire city.

Fenced in, shaded but don’t expect water. The fountains do not work but it is well kept and within distance of ice cream/dog friendly shops

They recently combined the two smaller fenced-in areas into one big area! And they added grass to the entire park which is SO much nicer! Best thing is it’s free to use

Why is this a dog park? There are rusted cast iron columns laying on the ground, the grass is almost all dead, and the bridge support structures aren't made dog-safe in any way. And the columns are hollow - great spot for a small dog to get stuck. Cool idea, but it needs a maintenance contact and some more thought put into the design.

The pictures of grass and a well tended area are obviously old. It's July 2023 now and the grass is hardly there. The much needed water fountain is no longer working for humans or dogs. Thankful there is shade here though, that's a perk! And a nice breeze off the riverfront.

I’m so disappointed about this park. It could be great but there were three dead pigeons and some exposed wires. Also the dog-friendly brewery nearby is permanently closed. Not worth venturing down here to a place that used to be thriving.
