About the Park
Open around the clock, the dog park at the Washington High School site, 1300 SE Stark Street, is one of the few 24-hour options in Southeast Portland. The space is fully fenced with separate areas for small and large dogs, plus water access, waste bags, seating, and shade. Grass covers the ground, with greenery and water features adding more to look at than the typical bare run. There's no charge. Shift workers and late-night owners get the most from the unrestricted hours — a midnight session is possible here when other parks have closed. For everyone else, the size-separated fenced areas are reason enough to visit.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Washington High School 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, Washington High School 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
