Lincoln Park’s pet services listings are a short list: an adoption center and two veterinary clinics, and we include the neighborhood’s dog park and a pet supply store below. The Clybourn corridor on the west side holds most of them, with PAWS Chicago, Sploot and Petco within a few blocks of each other. Oz Animal Hospital is on Webster near the park, and Wiggly Field is on Sheffield. The lakefront park between North Avenue and Diversey has no official dog area.
