Wiggly Field is Chicago’s most iconic dog park and the city’s first official DFA, established in 1997. Located in Lincoln Park, it features a full agility course, mature shade trees (a rarity among Chicago dog parks), and a separate section for shy or small dogs. The pea gravel and sand surface prevents muddy paws year-round. Consistently one of the most popular and well-visited dog parks in the city.
