It's hard to believe that until 1990 there were no dog runs in New York City. Today there are almost 50. Most of us take them for granted because we have no idea how much time and energy it takes to start a dog run.
If you'd like a dog run in your neighborhood, begin by reading urbanhound's step-by-step guide by clicking the links on the left. Our guide is written by Jeffrey Zahn, co-founder and president of the New York Council of Dog Owner Groups, and founder of Friends & Lovers of Riverside Area Life, an organization of dog owners on Manhattan's Upper West Side. Having worked tirelessly for many years to gain approval for a dog run in Riverside Park at West 72d Street, Dr. Zahn knows more about the in and outs of this process than just about anyone.
