The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in South Houston

Sonnier Street

Just 12 miles from South Houston, within Houston proper, you'll find Alexander Deussen Dog Park. This off-leash, fully fenced park is the pawfect place for your pup to explore, roll around in the lush grass, and play with some new fur-iends. There are two separate areas for different sized dogs, and agility equipment adds to the fun. If you're looking for an on-leash stroll, hit the paved walkway for a nice, relaxing walk. Another nice perk is that there is a hose right as you leave so you can rinse the grass and dirt out of your pup's fur, or just let them cool down after playing. The dog park is part of a huge 309-acre community park, which your leashed dog is welcome to explore with you.

Greenway/Upper Kirby

Houston's Greenway/Upper Kirby neighborhood is located just 12 miles from South Houston, and is home to the Danny Jackson Bark Dog Park. This dog park is a large, fenced area where your pup is more than welcome to play off-leash. You'll find two separate areas for small and large dogs, plenty of seating and shade for pet parents, and drinking water for your pooch in case he gets thirsty. If your furry friend gets too hot or just likes to swim, there are also swimming ponds available here. You will need to bring your own doggie waste supplies for easier cleanup and some towels to dry off.

Fourth Ward

Buffalo Bayou Park is a gorgeous place to spend the day with your pooch. It's just a skip and a hop from downtown Houston, 12 miles from South Houston.

Leash up your pup and hit the walking trails here. Benches and covered tables are available for the pet parents, but you'll need to bring your own supplies, especially water and waste bags. Be sure to check the official website to see if the park is hosting any events during your visit.
