Off Leash Dog Park via TTC?

[Bumbaclat]

So I no longer have regular access to a car and I want to let my dog have a good run. I used to to take him to the brickworks but that place is a bitch without a car (buses and whatnot).

Any good places? A little more private is better because he is easily distracted.

i think dog hill in high park is an off leash area.

yeah the dog hill in high park is an off leash area
you should take your dog to the beach - I take my dogs there and there are off leash areas - they love it so much - you take the streetcar down to the end and you are there

The leash free area in High Park is one of the better ones, but it does get busy there often.

Riverdale Farm is nice... I've been in that area quite a few times and it never seemed to be all that crowded.

Does Charlie puke on shoes when he's distracted?

My Puppy is getting her second shots today. So I will soon be able to take her to these places. I can't wait.

I want a puppy.

MURDER PARK!!

Uhm, I mean, Allan Gardens.

Take my dog there a fair bit. The part closest to Gerrard on Jarvis is leash-free.

LOL, that was a one time thing.

For those who don't know (most of you), Charlie puked on a visit to Primal's house.... on naomi's shoes. hilarity (and anger) ensued.

That dog has a crazy foot fetish. Although I've never brough my foot up to my nose, i'm pretty sure it doesn't smell like Alpo.

That would explain why Charlie and you were french kissing all the time.

"Off-leash" parks??
Do people really adhere to On-Leash park rules?

Once a week I take Baxter in to work with me (from the zoo to Yonge and Eg) and from the moment I get off the subway his leash comes off and it stays off for the rest of the day until i have to get back on the TTC. When I go our for stuff or just to take him out for a wee I never bother to put his leash on.

has anyone every been fined for not having their dog on leash?

I should have clarified, not "offleash area" but "good area to let a dog run around regardless of bylaws".

My dog is only 8 months so I can't just let him go anywhere.

you're so lucky.... I'd love to be able to do that.

Yeah it's a really good working environment. One of the girls brings in her shit zhu every day and this thing is treated like a princess. There's another girl who brings in her terriers one in a while, and then the guys in the office across the hall who bring in their dogs a chocolate lab and a french masitff.
If I don't take Baxter in at least once a week he get's pissed off and doesn't talk to me for a day or so.
