Pier 84 Dog Run

I'm here every day at least once, since my rescue dog Ruthie loves the doggie pools in the summer and is a social bug. There is an amazing dog owner community that often hosts holiday events and social hours there, and great neighbors who help clean and maintain that space (thank you).

It’s a community!! I love Debbie and the gals who plan and make the events happen there. Makes this place feel like home.

I absolutely LOVE dogs. We are not allowed to have pets in our building and I travel too much, but I hope that sometime in the future I’ll have one of my own. I often go to the Pier 84 Dog Run to just get my fix 🙂

My son desperately wants a pet and he’s allergic, so we go to the Pier 84 dog park and live vicariously. We wave, we name them, we say hello — it’s lovely and sad.
