San Antonio’s South Side is getting a new dog park next month, according to city officials.

The space for pooches at Conepcion Park was built in partnership with the Capital Delivery Department and District 3 Councilwoman Phyllis Viagran. It’s scheduled to open at 10 a.m. May 11 following a ribbon-cutting ceremony.

“This new dog park is a great addition for District 3 families and their pets, creating a welcoming space to gather, stay active, and enjoy the outdoors,” Viagran said in a statement. “We’re continuing to invest in amenities that enhance quality of life and expand access to green space across our community.”

Funded via the voter-approved 2022-2027 Bond and the City Tree Mitigation Fund, the space will bring San Antonio’s total number of off-leash dog parks to 20. A full list of San Antonio dog parks is available on the city’s official website.
