About the Park
Sunnyside Park in Fitchburg offers an off-leash area for dogs and costs nothing to use as a public park. The off-leash space gives dogs room to run in this suburb just south of Madison. Details on fencing, surface, and hours are not confirmed in our records, so check whether the dog area is enclosed and review any posted rules when you get there. Fitchburg sits in Dane County in south-central Wisconsin, where summers are warm and winters bring regular snow. Since specific amenities are not documented beyond the off-leash designation, plan to carry your own water and waste bags, and verify current conditions locally before a longer visit with your dog.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Sunnyside Park is an off-leash area without full fencing. Make sure your dog has solid recall before letting them loose, and keep an eye on them near any roads or boundaries.
Best of all, Sunnyside Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
backpackWhat to Bring
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

High-value treats

Your dog's favorite toy
