Dog Friendly Edmonton & Area Guide 2024

 

 Welcome to the new year and the new Edmonton Dog Friendly Guide! 

We have added some great new dog friendly spots, some are specifically for dogs, others are dog welcoming. 

  Go ahead, bring your bestie! We have a master list (and a map!) of all the places you can bring your dogs in Edmonton and the Greater Area. Take a stroll in your local dog park, then to the nearest dog friendly patio, plus catch some shopping in some sweet dog-friendly retail stores! You can peek through our master lists and browse by area, or take a look at our  Edmonton Dog Friendly Map that has local dog friendly locations in Edmonton! (Dog park information sourced from edmonton.ca).

 

  Don't forget to bring lots of water and treats! Bark Bars are perfect for an adventure ;) Beware of hot pavement in hot months, some paths and walkways will be extra hot if they are dark.  

  No matter where you and your dog adventure, ensure that you clean up after them, and that they are good canine citizens. That way we can keep Edmonton #dogfriendly 

 *Note: Please remember to always double check ahead of time and confirm each place is dog-friendly, as locations and their policies may vary.
