The area
Address
Neighbourhood: Downtown
At the heart of Toronto, Downtown is the destination for cheap eats and fast fashion. Cut through by hip and trendy Yonge Street, the vibe here is young, with a strong student influence from the Ryerson University Campus. As a result, the Downtown area is always in flux: undergoing the construction of new facilities, with fresh retail spaces and pop-up cafes. Home to Toronto's largest indoor shopping mall, a number of vintage cinemas, and a healthy nightlife centered on the area's Distillery District bar and clubs near the East End, it's both an easygoing daytime spot and a popular party place after sunset. It also features some of Toronto's best outdoor landmarks, including Yonge-Dundas Square and the Nathan Phillips Square: perfect for a concert, a skate, or a relaxing sit-down.

We just happened to come across Berczy Park and it was lovely. The main feature is an interesting, unusual fountain full of dog sculptures all over it, with the large sculpture of a bone at the very top. This is a dog park! There are also several other works of art in the park which make it even more welcoming.

Berczy Park is a short walk from Union Station and St Lawrence Market. It's a place you can take your dog for a walk quite easily and they may enjoy the fountain too.
The fountain is lots of dogs spitting water from their mouths into the water in different locations and there is a bone at the top of the fountain. Perhaps this is what they are all aiming for?
Don't forget to look out for the cats!

Terrific and quirky park with plenty of seating, some fun and cool people watching and one of the most enjoyable fountains in the city. The doggy fount is a blast....fun, silly, pretty, and well loved. I really like this park and always make a point to stroll through when I go to nearby St Lawrence mkt. Enjoy....it's great!

What an adorable little park in the middle of downtown. The theme is whimsical and fun. The only downside to our visit was a man bathing (washing himself) in the lower bowl of the fountain. We simply walked around to the other side and enjoyed the the sculptures and even spotted the one cat.

I needed a new suitcase so we walked from the Fairmont Royal York down to Winners, about 10 minutes away from hotel ! And, what to our wondering eyes did we find, but this amazing dog fountain.........Loved it, sat and enjoyed it for a bit, and took pix of all breeds, and the one kitty , what fun! A hidden gem in the city.......... And yes, I did get a new Roots suitcase at Walmart, a wonderful trip to Toronto and this was definitely a highlight!

This fountain is incredible!!! We stumbled across it whilst walking back from St Lawrence Market and we loved it. We are both dog lovers, so this was the definitely the place for us. There is a cute bone at the top, with a range of different dogs dotted all around.
If you go, find the only cat on the edge of the fountain and see what they are looking at - super cute.
Definitely go, this park is fabulous!

I passed by Berczy Park on the way to visit the St. Lawrence food market. There is a fantastic dog fountain with statues of every kind of dog. It is a great photo opportunity and a great think to look at.

It's a must-see, day and night. It's just a cute dog fountain, but I loved it. (Find the cat and what it's looking at.) It is right next to the Gooderham building aka the Flatiron and near the St. Lawrence Market, where you can get picnic supplies or a pea meal (Canadian bacon) sandwich that is delightful. Also near C'est What, a beer bar that was highly recommended by our tour guide (didn't make it there yet.). Note: better in spring/summer, as the water will be turned off in cold weather.

Visited here with my wife and we were amazed at the fountain where there were different types of dog statues each spouting water from their mouths into the fountain. Amazing

I love this place with a Dog Fountain a lot. It was a great idea to make something so lovely and funny. All the dogs are looking up to the big bone, only one cat doesn’t care and it’s looking somewhere else. I was sitting there for quite a long time and watching people. They took pictures, touched the dogs, sat down on them and they smiled. Yes, this fountain makes people smile.
