About the Park
The Shaw neighborhood sits between Tower Grove Park and the Missouri Botanical Garden, and it keeps a dog park of its own for residents who want off-leash time closer to home. Shaw Neighborhood Dog Park is free, consistent with the area's public green spaces. Records confirm off-leash use but not fencing, surface, or posted hours, so a quick look at signage on arrival is worth your time. The surrounding blocks are dense with the historic brick homes typical of this part of south St. Louis. Spring and fall are the sweet spots here; July and August afternoons get steamy enough that dogs do better with shorter sessions.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Shaw Neighborhood 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, Shaw Neighborhood Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
