West 87th Street Dog Run — Attraction in New York

My small dog was attacked by a German Shepherd in this dog run, she has broken ribs/abdominal injury so I would definitely be careful if you have a small dog. I also heard other incidences unfortunately.

We sat by the bench outside, and witnessed the same dog being aggressive towards another dog! Finally the owner left and apologized to me once more as he...

Great dog run! Everybody was very friendly, and while there are "small dog" and "big dog" areas of the run, I found that there wasn't much segregating going on and they were all mixing together. Our dog, who is 12 pounds, seemed to have a great time running around with the 25-35 pound dogs, even though they played a little rough with her sometimes. Either way, great community of owners come here, who were all friendly, happy to talk, and only on one occasion hesitant to step in if their dog seemed to be getting...
