Where to Unleash: The Tri-City Dog Parks
Three free spots within a short drive — pick the one that fits your pup's energy.
Fremont Central Park Dog Park
1740 Stevenson Blvd · 5 AM–10 PM. Turf and lighting, which makes it the pick for early-morning or late-evening zoomies when everywhere else is dark.
Shinn Pond Dog Park, Niles
Creek trail, grass, and a pond for summer dips. The most scenic of the three and the best one for a dog that wants to swim rather than sprint.
NewBark Dog Park, Newark
At Newark Community Park, and the newest of the three. Worth the drive if your usual spot is busy.
All three are free
Just bring water and a poop bag. We keep both by the register on Fremont Blvd if you forget.
