Caraline is the best. She is reliable, caring, and goes above and beyond. Never leaves without giving a treat and so much positive reinforcement. But the reason why she s my favorite Wag go-to, is because she always tells me a silly detail or funny encounter from the walk. Her message me smile every day while im at work cause I know exactly what she s talking about with my sweet Jimmies :)

The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in Asbury Park

City Center

Sunset Lake Park, Bradley Park, and Firefighters Park in the City Center neighborhood of Asbury Park are a string of parks that line up to make about 1.2 miles of walking trails. The parks have lush green scenery and plenty of trees for shade, open fields to run around in with your leashed dog, and Sunset Lake right in the center. It's a puptastic option for a walk. Sunset Lake has an open pier 24/7 and allows leashed-dogs onto the dock to accompany humans in fishing, or going out to the lake by kayak or boat. Dogs must remain on a 6-foot leash while in the lake.

Memorial Dr/ Springwood Ave

Springwood Park is on the southern edge of the Memorial Drive and Springwood Avenue neighborhood. It's a quaint park with a small play area and an open area that's welcoming to all leashed dogs. With plenty of roaming space for you and your dog to play fetch or frisbee, the park also features benches and a clean-up station near the parking area. After getting all that energy out at the Springwood Park, head over to The Speakeatery, a dog-friendly gourmet deli with outdoor seating and complimentary water for dogs, and delicious sandwiches for humans.

Dogs Corner

Dogs Corner is at the edge of Asbury Park and provides an entrance into the Whale Pond Brook Preserve, a 90-acre natural area with plenty of dog-friendly walking trails. The walking trails allow dogs as long they remain on a leash and can handle being around the many wildlife species throughout the preserve. With over 3 miles of walking trails, the preserve is the perfect natural experience away from the beach. Since this is a natural preserve, there are only trash bins available, and humans will have to bring clean-up bags and water for the trip.

Oceanport

The small town of Oceanport is about 7 miles away from Asbury Park, and is a great place to head to for the Wolf Hill Dog Park. The 4-acre fenced-in park is usually quiet and not overcrowded, and features a separate area for dogs 35 pounds and under, and another for larger dogs. Both areas offer clean-up stations and trash bins. The in-park pavilion provides shade, and there are portapotties on site, but owners will have to remember to bring water for their soon to be thirsty pups.

Lincroft

A fenced-in dog area, trails, and a dog-friendly lake is at the Thompson Dog Park in Lincroft, a small town about 13 miles from Asbury Park. The large park has separate fenced-in areas for smaller and larger dogs to roam off-leash, complete with benches, clean-up stations, and water fountains. Each area has a double-gated entrance. Dogs must remain on a leash outside the fenced-in area, but are free to roam the natural trails throughout the park or play in the dog-friendly lake in the park if you want to get out and have some quiet one-on-one time with your pup.
