Brentwood Area 1 Off-Leash Dog Park Overview
Brentwood Area 1 (designation BRE-001) is a fenced off-leash park at 3359 Breton Close NW, with a grass surface and a dedicated small dog area — a nice option if you've got a smaller dog that does better away from bigger, more boisterous playmates.
The site sits right next to Charleswood's Area 1 site near Nose Hill Park, so the two communities' off-leash areas effectively back onto each other.
