About the Park
Small breeds get priority here, as the name makes clear — an off-leash spot in Alameda set aside for little dogs that can feel overwhelmed at mixed-size parks. The park sits in the 94501 zip code on Alameda's main island, where mild San Francisco Bay weather keeps outdoor time comfortable most of the year. It is free to use, like the rest of the city's public parks. Fencing details, surface type, and posted hours are not in our records, so check signage when you arrive, especially if your dog needs a secure perimeter before going off leash. For a low-key outing with a small dog, it is a practical neighborhood option.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Alameda Small Dog Park is an off-leash area without full fencing. Make sure your dog has solid recall before letting them loose, and keep an eye on them near any roads or boundaries.
Best of all, Alameda Small Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
backpackWhat to Bring

Even parks with water fountains can have them out of service. Bring your own to be safe.
Poop bags
Most parks provide them, but don't rely on it. Always come prepared to clean up after your dog.
A folding chair
This park may have limited seating, so a portable chair can make longer visits more comfortable.
A reflective collar or light-up leash
If you visit near dusk, visibility gear helps you keep track of your dog and stay safe.
High-value treats

Your dog's favorite toy
