There is a shallow river where your pup can take a swim, and there are also trails to walk alongside the river. You don’t have to worry about shade as there are plenty of trees. This park also provides agility equipment for your pup to play on. Something to keep in mind, though, is that you will need to purchase a permit for your pooch and also show proof of your dog license and rabies vaccination.

Central Milwaukee
