Pat Merritt Dog Park

Address: 6181 Limonite Ave, Riverside, CA 92509

Tall trees provide generous shade across both the small and large dog sections here, and benches, water stations, and kiddie pools make it comfortable for owners and dogs alike. Double-gated entry adds a layer of safety, and waste bags and trash cans are on-site to help keep things tidy. Separate fenced areas and a lot of open grass give dogs of all sizes room to run, and the off-leash community here has a reputation for being welcoming.
