Hunnewell Hill
Hunnewell Hill is a northeastern neighborhood of Newton located close to the Massachusetts Turnpike and separated from Watertown by the Charles River. This simple neighborhood features mostly residential quarters and the occasional convenience store. The real gem here, though, is Hunnewell Park. This huge and beautiful park is the pawfect place for some off-leash playtime! Here, you'll find plenty of shade and seating for humans, but you'll need to bring your own water and waste bags with you, since water is only provided here in summer. Hunnewell Park is a local favorite, and there are plenty of pups and pet parents to meet here, especially on the weekends!

Griggs Park
Nestled in the northern part of Brookline, Griggs Park is a densely populated neighborhood set between several busy roads and highways leading thousands of tourists and locals back and forth to Boston. Being mostly urban, the neighborhood has a nice recreation spot for everyone who values a small piece of solitude sometimes! Bring your pooch to explore Griggs Park, where mutts are allowed to play off-leash and enjoy the company of other canines from dawn to 1 pm. The rest of time, feel free to exercise and play fetch with your leashed pup here. Hungry? Check out a few dog-friendly eateries dotted along Beacon Street. Washington Square Tavern is a nice place with a friendly atmosphere, varied menu, and outdoor seating where your dog is welcome to dine!
Emerson Gardens
Emerson Gardens is one of the central neighborhoods of Brookline, offering some great cultural ad historical places to explore with Fido along with a few leafy recreation areas.

Both parks take part in Brookline’s Green Dog Program, an optional program which gives dogs off-leash access to community parks. You'll need to pay a fee and obtain an annual permit to take part in the program. This allows dogs to explore all of Brookline's 14 off-leash areas during designated hours.
