Edmonton and Area Off Leash Parks

Here at the BMREG we are all dog owners, proud mama’s and papa’s of our four legged family members.  Now that the weather is nice, it is the perfect opportunity to get out and enjoy the dog parks created with our dogs specifically in mind!  Keep in mind, they all tend to follow the same general rules:

Dogs must be licensed, obey commands and you must still have a leash handy.  “Restricted” dogs are not allowed in dog parks in Edmonton, and you must also pick up after your dog, so bring your bag!   You can visit local websites for more specific info.

Dog owners need to remember that dogs are not permitted in the following areas:

• Playgrounds (sand or grass beneath the equipment)
• Tennis Courts
• Spray Decks
• Floral Gardens
• Strathcona Wilderness Centre
• Artificial Turf Sport Fields

OFF LEASH AREAS:

EDMONTON:

Did you know Edmonton has over 40 sites where a dog can run off leash? 

**A much loved favourite among our clients is the Terwillegar Off Leash Site!

STRATHCONA COUNTY:

Again, dogs must be licensed, you must clean up after your dog, and the person holding the leash must be able to control the dog.  Leashes must be no longer than eight meters, and “restricted or vicious” dogs are subject to great restrictions.

• The Deermound Dog Off Leash Site.  For more info, visit:  http://www.strathcona.ca/departments/recreation-parks-and-culture/parks-trails-sports-venues/dogs-in-the-park/

 FORT SASKATCHEWAN:

• Covering over 6 acres!  http://www.fortsask.ca/residents/parks-trails/off-leash-dog-park

ST ALBERT:

• St Alberta has 2 dog parks as well now including 12 outdoor skating rinks (when not in use for organized sports):  https://stalbert.ca/getting-around/maps/dog-friendly-parks/

The warmth of the spring season has seen many new listings popping up!  We take pride in our comprehensive knowledge gained through years of experience, and we continually strive to provide our clients with the most up to date market information.  We stay up to date on the latest market trends and marketing tools to help you buy or sell a home efficiently and effectively.  We never take referrals for granted, and appreciate each and every one.  If you or someone you know is looking to buy or sell in 2016, we would be more than happy to provide a complimentary assessment or answer any questions you may have.  It’s what we do.

Sincerely,

The Brent MacIntosh Real Estate Group
