Southdown Dog Park — Attraction in Pearland

This is one of the best parks in Pearland. Great for kids 12 and under. The playgrounds have a large shade that covers them. The splash pad was refinished, painted, and all the equipment replaced just a couple weeks ago.

The ground of the playground is made out of a molded recycled tire(?) and it can be rough for kiddos that crawl, but it also dries super fast, so it is a good playground the day after a big rain (whereas the other have huge puddles all over).

There are two sets of bathrooms. One is in the small event center. It is nicer and has changing tables, but is only open sometimes. The other set is always open and very camp-like.

It is loud in the sense that the highway is nearby, but you get used to it fairly quickly.

There is a nice walking trail that loops around the whole park. It has a couple workout stations.

They have concerts on Friday nights for a couple months in the summer and activities all year round in the event center.

There is a well-maintained dog park.

There are also exercise groups that meet here in the morning and evening.

Overall, this is definitely a favorite park for the...

A great place for dogs to come out and have fun. The park is about an acre and a half in size. It split into two sections, for small and large dogs. Of course, you can take your dog in either one depending on how comfortable you are. It's an open area so there's a lot of nice breeze that blows in the evening. There's parking right next to the dog park for about 4 to 5 cars, but there's plenty more parking at the Children's Park right next to it.

There's plenty of other dogs and pups here usually on the weekends. So your dog will have a lot of fun out here playing with others. There's an occasional humper that you go to watch out for. LOL. People playing all kinds of breeds here - German Shepherds, Terriers, Labs, Pitbulls, etc. I've never seen any of the dogs fight over here. It's like they know they want to just come over here and...

I love this dog park! It's a great size, and there is a nice hill that blocks the sound and view of the highway while you are inside the park. There is a side for smaller dogs and one for larger dogs, with some structures you can try to train your dog to go on/ through (i.e. tubes, wooden bench). There is also a water fountain with different dispensing heights for you or your dog at the entrance, and a dispenser for quality pet waste bags inside the park area. One thing to watch out for: if it has rained at all in the past few days, water might not have drained in the south corner of the large dog park area. My golden found a small spot immediately, and of course rolled in the muddy water. I always bring a towel just in case now, but there usually isn't any water if it...
