Off-Leash Safety

Some parks in Fitchburg offer fenced enclosures, which are ideal if your dog is still working on recall or if you simply want peace of mind. Always check the fence condition when you arrive — look for gaps at ground level that a determined digger could exploit.

Best Times to Visit
