Canine Corner at Dreher Park

Canine Corner is located within Dreher Park. Dreher Park has a total of 113 acres. Canine Corner takes up approximately one and a half acres and is located just south of Palm Beach County Zoo.

Canine Corner is made up of two separate, but adjoining, fenced areas: one for large dogs and one for small dogs. Within this well-shaded park are covered benches, waste receptacles for each dog play area, agility equipment, as well as doggie and human water fountains. This park’s landscape is not only filled with Banyan trees, but there are also numerous hills throughout.

Outside Canine Corner, there are eight acres of ponds. These ponds have fishing docks that are open to the public. The ponds are habitat to soft shell turtles, various birds, and fish that are native to South Florida. There is also a heart-shaped walking trail on the perimeter of Dreher Park.

This park has ample parking and public restrooms. The park is managed/operated by the West Palm Beach Parks and Recreation Department.

PJ First Impressions:  First of all, a drive through Dreher park is beautiful in itself, but then you get to the dog park and it's just as beautiful as the rest of the park. Once you pull into the Canine Corner parking, it's a quick jot up a sidewalk lines with fire hydrants...so cute. As you approach you notice a main entrance and then a big dog entrance to the right and a small dog entrance to the left. Both sides contain a water fountain and both sides have lot of trees and shade which is nice on a hot sticky day.  The benches are few and far between but there are some. The only we would be concerned with is the wood fence that lines the one side of the sections. We would suggest a quick once over to make certain there are no holes for your dog to slip through. It did seem fairly secure but always better safe than sorry. All in all, this dog park is a great choice as it has plenty of room to run and play!
