The wrong mix
A busy park is not always the right park for your dog. Every check-in shows the dog's size, age group and social style, so you can see the mix first.
A missed moment
You arrive just after everyone leaves, or go at a quiet hour. Check-ins make a park's rhythm easier to read.

All 96 dog parks in Antwerp
Dogs Social covers Antwerp, Belgium, and nowhere else yet. The 96 dog parks are the city's own list, and none is missing. Each comes with its address, its boundary on a map, its area, ground, fencing and lighting. They run from a patch the size of a back garden to a field of several hectares. Browse them here, then open the app to see who is at one now.
Park facts come from Stad Antwerpen open data, with some values corrected by Dogs Social where checked.

QUICK ANSWERS
Questions people ask before their first visit
What is Dogs Social?
Dogs Social is a free web app that shows which dogs are checked in at Antwerp dog parks right now, and which ones plan to arrive later, so you can judge the trip before you pick up the leash. It runs in a phone browser and carries all 96 dog parks from Stad Antwerpen's own register of dog zones.
Is Dogs Social free, and do I need an account?
Dogs Social is a free web app. No account is needed to open the map, look at a park, check in or plan a later arrival. An account is needed for two things: uploading a dog photo and saving a bio. Without one, your dog stays tied to the browser you used.
Which cities does Dogs Social cover?
Dogs Social covers Antwerp, Belgium only, with 96 dog parks from the city's open-data portal. It does not cover other cities, beaches or trails. You can browse the Antwerp parks on this site, and open the app map to see who is at one right now. More cities are a plan, not something you can use today.
How do I know who's at a park?
Open the Dogs Social map and tap an Antwerp dog park. The park lists the dogs checked in there now and, separately, the dogs whose owners plan to arrive later. Looking needs no check-in and no account. Presence comes from owners checking in, so it is a signal, not a guarantee that a dog will still be there.
What does checking in mean?
A Dogs Social check-in is a short, self-reported signal that your dog is at a park now, or plans to arrive later. It reserves nothing, and a later plan does not promise the owner will turn up. You can extend a stay, check out, confirm a planned arrival or cancel it when plans change.
How is Dogs Social different from Google Maps?
Dogs Social takes its parks from Stad Antwerpen's register of dog zones, so every pin is a zone the city officially lists and none is missing. Google Maps mixes official zones with places people added themselves. Dogs Social also shows which dogs are checked in now and who plans to arrive later. Directions still open in Google Maps from a park.
