It’s back, the Dog Park’s most popular event, the 2010 Dog Splash in Depew Park!
It’s the one day of the year when our pups are allowed to swim and play in the lake at Depew Park. The play/swim area is securely fenced in, and Peekskill’s great animal control officer will be present to monitor the dogs and owners. And don’t worry if you have a small dog: there will be kiddie pools set up for private splashing!
Before you leave the Splash, stop by the complimentary Dog Wash station, where a team of our dedicated volunteers will wash and shampoo your dog to perfection. Please join us and help support the Peekskill Dog Park!

The new year has brought with it some seriously cold weather which may have limited your use of the dog park. Don’t worry: once the warmer weather comes, we will be busy with upgrades and events. In the planning stages now is a public art project, which you’ll hear more about in coming weeks.
Regarding benches: thank you to everyone who has offered to donate a new bench to the park. We are currently developing an “adopt a bench” program and will publicize it in the spring. In the meantime, please do not bring plastic chairs or other pieces of outdoor furniture to the dog park.
On the road again: We are working with the City to get the turnaround area in front of the dog park paved for this spring. This will be a huge help when it comes to the rainy season and mud. Keep your fingers crossed!
