Johnny Steele Dog Park gives energetic pups room to sprint, splash, and socialize beside Buffalo Bayou. Separate areas help divide large and small dogs, while ponds, washing stations, shade, and seating make the outing easier on people. The park can get muddy after wet weather, which dogs consider a feature; towels and a leash for the walk back are wise. For Johnny Steele Dog Park, start early in warm weather, carry water, and let the best view determine where you pause.
