I just adopted my Shih Tzu, Arya, two months ago and so far it's been pretty hard to find a place that we both like. G
I live in wanchai so the places around are pretty dog friendly and it's really convenient if I want to visit surrounding dog parks. We started going to the dog park in wanchai quite often in the first month (Sung Hung Kai) and loved it because there were so many other dogs and they were really friendly. But then we realised how much our dog hated it haha. She would literally cower between our legs or just sit in a corner so we soon got bored of the place. Also, it's really really small.
The worst one yet I'd say would be the so called 'dog parks' in Tamar which are literally two small enclosed circles. It was even uncomfortably small for us and that's coming from someone who lives in a teeny tiny HK appartment.
Our favourite one so far has been the Sheung Wan dog park! It was great! Lots of interesting personalities, both dogs and owners and comfortably spacious. However, the male dogs somehow there were all somehow incredibly horny for my dog and we spent half the night fending off rapists (read: owner gets violently scratched by multiple horny dogs). Still, the park itself is great
Nowadays, I walk her round wanchai, even though some places don't allow dogs. A lot of parks or open areas here are completely empty at night but say "no dogs allowed". I don't think they mind my dog because she couldn't harm an ant if she wanted to but either way, hk should definitely become more dog friendly. Never got caught and if I do I'd probably use my dog's adorable face to fend off haters.
