Wheeler Memorial Dog Park is a 1.5-acre fenced off-leash park in Columbus' Harrison West neighborhood, featuring separate areas for small and large dogs that are rotated monthly for turf recovery. The park includes hills, trees, paths, benches, picnic tables, a kiosk, drinking fountain with a low catch bowl for small dogs, and acorn-lamp lighting.
Wheeler Memorial Dog Park is fully fenced, so your dog can run and play off-leash without worry. This makes it a great choice for dogs still working on recall or for owners who want extra peace of mind.
There's a separate area for small dogs, which is perfect if you have a smaller breed that might be intimidated by larger dogs. This is a feature many dog owners specifically look for.
Dogs can enjoy water features here — great for cooling off on hot days. Bring a towel for the car ride home, because your pup will probably get soaked.
Best of all, Wheeler Memorial Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
Fresh water and a bowl
Even parks with water fountains can have them out of service. Bring your own to be safe.
Poop bags
Most parks provide them, but don't rely on it. Always come prepared to clean up after your dog.
A towel
Your dog will likely get wet at the water features. Save your car seats with a quick dry-off.
High-value treats
Useful for practicing recall in a distracting environment and rewarding good social behavior.
Your dog's favorite toy
A familiar toy can help shy dogs feel more comfortable and give them something to focus on.
Note: Dogs must be picked up after. Aggressive or ill-mannered dogs should not be brought. Park is closed during winter months for turf maintenance. No designated parking; visitors walk or park on street/curb.
