inwood hill dog run
location
West 207th Street. Near the baseball diamond.
comments
For both dog and human, this dog run is nowhere near as interesting as Inwood Hill Park itself. The park is huge, with many trails into the hills where, according to one urbanhounder, "dogs can unofficially, and unobtrusively, frolic off-leash (despite the dogs-on-leash signs)."

j. hood wright park
location
West 173rd Street, between Fort Washington Ave. and Haven Ave.
comments
A small, basic run badly needed in an area that was lacking. The Parks Department maintains this dog run because there's no active group of dog owners here.

fort tryon park - sir william's run
location
190th Street and Ft. Washington. Enter park at Corbin Circle and follow path past New Leaf Cafe.
comments
The first large lawn dedicated as a 24 hour off leash space for dogs. A lovely hillside spot of more than an acre with terrific views and plenty of open space, fenced in so that dogs can't run off. Dogs are allowed at the outdoor tables at the nearby cafe. The Fort Tryon Dog Owners Group helps to maintain the run. Their web page can be found at www.ftdog.org.

rocky run
location
Riverside Dr. and 165th St.
comments
large run, immediately adjacent to Riverside Drive, surrounded by trees, with two double gated entrances, wood chips on dirt surface, and lots of shade in the warm months. More info from the Washington Tykes blog.
