McCormick Park Dog Park
Compact near-north fenced dog run for quick neighborhood visits
About this park
A small, single-area fenced dog park on Madison's near north side with no water fountain and no size separation, but enough grass for a decent leg-stretch when you don't want to drive across town. An artificial-turf pad near the entrance handles mud better than the rest of the field.

What visitors say
Synthesized from 62 Google reviewsThe most consistent praise is convenience: it's a small, fenced park that works for a quick stretch when you don't want to drive out to Prairie Moraine. The artificial-turf entrance pad keeps early-season visits cleaner than you'd expect.
Neighborhood-scale traffic, not a regulars' destination, but low-key when it's quiet. A few reviews flag unpicked-up waste and inconsistent enforcement of the basic rules.

Before you go
Bring your own water and bowl; there's no fountain on site, and pack extra bags in case the dispenser is low. Watch your step in the open field; reviewers flag dug-out holes in the middle of the grass.
