East 1st Dog Park

Carleton Court Dog Park was formed in 2005 by a group of South End locals wanting for a safe place to meet and play off-leash with their dogs. At the time, the Friends of Carleton Court Dog Park (FOCC) was formed to manage and maintain the park.

Pets adore this fenced off-leash dog park in South Boston, which features seats, trees, tunnels, and gravel ground cover. Licensing is required for dogs.

R.U.F.F. (Responsible Urbanites For Fido) is a group of volunteer dog enthusiasts whose purpose is to promote healthy dog living and better neighborhood relations by working with the community.

This small fenced-in dog park is simple and unassuming, but if you live nearby, it's a great place to play fetch or let your dog run around and burn off some energy. It's fully fenced with a double gate, which is always a plus.

Peters Park is named for George and Sadie Peters, two prominent members of the Syrian-Lebanese community who lived here from 1880 to 1966, when the Boston Redevelopment Authority (BRA) acquired the property as part of the South End Renewal Plan.
