Dog Runs

Brooklyn Bridge Park welcomes dogs and their owners. There are two dog runs in the park: at the Main Street section of the park (Adams Street and N/S Plymouth Street), and at Pier 6 adjacent to Atlantic Avenue.  There are volunteer organizations of dog owners helping to maintain each of the dog runs.  To become part of the Pier 6 dog run volunteer effort, please send an email to: pier6dogrun@gmail.com.  To volunteer with the Main Street Dog Run, please send an email to: BBPDogRun@nyc.rr.com. 

Dogs are required to be on-leash in all other areas of Brooklyn Bridge Park at all times.

• NYC law requires dogs to be on a leash 6 feet or shorter at all times, except in designated areas. 
• Owners must be in control of their dogs at all times. 
• Please dispose of dog waste properly.
• Dogs are never allowed in playgrounds, on lawns, or designated sports areas.
• Do not allow dogs to dig - holes create trip hazards.
• To protect wildlife habitats, dogs must always be leashed and stay on paths.
