For dog owners, finding a safe and spacious area where their pets can run free and socialize is often a challenge. The new Off-Lease Dog Park, which opened in the summer of 2024, offers a dedicated space where dogs can enjoy the freedom to play, exercise, and interact with other dogs without the constraints of a leash.
