Brentwood Area 2 Off-Leash Dog Park Overview
Brentwood Area 2 (companion site to Brentwood's fenced Area 1) sits at 3315 Barrett Pl NW, offering a spacious open-field off-leash area with shaded spots to help dogs and owners cool off on sunny days.
Unlike Area 1, this site has no fully fenced section and no separate area for big and small dogs — it's a straightforward open field. Free entry and wheelchair-accessible access make it easy to use, though there's no water fountain or seating on site, so come prepared.
The park sits close to Sir Winston Churchill High School and the Dalhousie community, with Dalhousie CTrain station and Varsity Acres Park both nearby.
