The “Dogs-in-Parks Designation Policy” has been developed in consideration of all people who use City parkland. The policy establishes fair and consistent criteria which, when applied city-wide, ensures access to parkland by dogs with their owners as well as freedom from dogs where parks, parts of parks, or park activities are not compatible with the presence of dogs. The policy provides for community involvement in the designation process.
The City has created an interactive map to indicate off-leash and dog park areas in Ottawa, refer to Ottawa.ca
