Fort Tryon Park Dog Run

Fort Tryon Park Dog Run The largest dog run in Manhattan, the run is over an acre of fenced-in fun in the heart of Fort Tryon Park! The fence was added in 2001.

The area started as a large non-fenced-in dog run area. Sir William’s Dog Run is maintained by volunteers in collaboration with the Department of Parks and Recreation and the Fort Tryon Trust. Sir William’s Dog Run has over 350 regular users and attracts visitors from the five boroughs and beyond. How to Get Involved:

Coffee Bark the first Sunday of the month. 10am - 12pm. Free coffee and homemad

e baked goods provided by our sponsor Spoiled Brats. Clean Up Days: The second Saturday of the month. Help keep our dog run safe and beautiful. Howl-O-Ween: Our annual canine costume extravaganza. A variety of categories and prizes. A great event for the whole family. Directions: Enter Fort Tryon park where Fort Washington Avenue turns into Margaret Corbin Circle. Take a right - going towards New Leaf Cafe. Walk down the stairs past the cafe - there's an archway, this goes UNDER the road. The dog run is on the left by a giant radiator sculpture.

Meet Hunny!

Hunny has been fostered uptown for about two weeks and needs a new place to land while she searches for her forever home.

She came to The Good Life Dog Rescue from the Animal Care Centers of NYC (ACC) and loves people, other dogs, walks and a good game of fetch.

Hunny is a wonderful dog, but she has struggled when left alone in her current foster home. We hope this is transitional distress, and she now has medication to help her cope.

Her ideal foster would be someone who:

• Is home much of the day
• Works from home
• Is able to bring her along on outings
• Is willing to work with our team as we help her feel more secure

Hunny needs a new foster home as soon as possible. Please reach out to The Good Life Dog Rescue if you have room for this sweet girl. [email protected]

This adorable little pup is available for adoption. Viola is 8 years old and only wants a good life and to give you unconditionally love.

She was used to breed, and to nurse other’s puppies (in PA). She’s up to date with her vaccinations and is waiting to get spayed. She’s a sweetie of a dog!

If I did not have my big boy Socrates, she would be mine.

This precious little pup was literally thrown on to the lap of Melissa, Callie’s mom, in the subway. Callie, 14 is not fond of the cute little interloper and even though Melissa would keep her if Callie didn’t mind, she wants to find her a new home. Leave a message here if interested.
