About the Park
Mature trees set Hanscom Dog Park apart from more exposed off-leash spots, throwing real shade over the grass on hot Nebraska afternoons. The run sits inside Hanscom Park off Hanscom Park Drive in the 68105 zip, south of downtown Omaha. Fencing fully encloses the area, with separate sections for small, medium, and large dogs so size mismatches are easy to avoid. A water fountain and dispenser handle drinking needs, and picnic tables give owners a place to sit. The city operates it as a free public park, open daily from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m. The surface is natural grass, which can get muddy after rain, so check conditions before you load up the car.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Hanscom Dog Park is fully fenced, so your dog can run and play off-leash without worry. This makes it a great choice for dogs still working on recall or for owners who want extra peace of mind.
There's a separate area for small dogs, which is perfect if you have a smaller breed that might be intimidated by larger dogs. This is a feature many dog owners specifically look for.
Dogs can enjoy water features here — great for cooling off on hot days. Bring a towel for the car ride home, because your pup will probably get soaked.
Best of all, Hanscom Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
backpackWhat to Bring
Fresh water and a bowl
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 towel
Your dog will likely get wet at the water features. Save your car seats with a quick dry-off.
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
Useful for practicing recall in a distracting environment and rewarding good social behavior.
Your dog's favorite toy
