Hunnewell Playground is a 4.6-acre neighborhood park in Brighton/Newton, MA featuring a small, fenced off-leash dog area where dogs can romp and socialize. The park also includes regulation softball and soccer/lacrosse fields, a playground, and wooded areas.
Hunnewell Playground Dog Park is fully fenced, so your dog can run and play off-leash without worry. This makes it a great choice for dogs still working on recall or for owners who want extra peace of mind.
Best of all, Hunnewell Playground Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
Fresh water and a bowl
Even parks with water fountains can have them out of service. Bring your own to be safe.
Poop bags
Most parks provide them, but don't rely on it. Always come prepared to clean up after your dog.
A folding chair
This park may have limited seating, so a portable chair can make longer visits more comfortable.
A reflective collar or light-up leash
If you visit near dusk, visibility gear helps you keep track of your dog and stay safe.
High-value treats
Useful for practicing recall in a distracting environment and rewarding good social behavior.
Your dog's favorite toy
A familiar toy can help shy dogs feel more comfortable and give them something to focus on.
Note: Off-leash area is fenced in only. Park entry for dog area is from New Balance parking lot. Not accessible (sloped entry).
