Psie Pole (Polish pronunciation: [pɕɛ ˈpɔlɛ], German: Hundsfeld, [ˈhʊntsfɛlt]), lit.'Dog Field', is a former borough of Wrocław, Poland, located in the north-eastern part of the city.

Before 1928, it used to be an independent town. On March 21, 1991, the newly created City Office of Wrocław assumed many of the functions previously carried out within the borough. The name, though, remained in use, mainly for statistical and administrative purposes.[2]

It lies in the city's northern and northeastern parts, on the right shore of the Oder River. A part of Psie Pole is one of Wrocław's greenest neighborhoods, and its suburban location makes it an important transport hub toward Warsaw, Łódź and other locations in central Poland.

The Polish General Tadeusz Kościuszko Military University of Land Forces is located in Psie Pole.
