Looking for off-leash fun? You’ve got two choices in Hingham’s Crow Point/ West Hingham neighborhood, about three miles from North Weymouth. If your dog requires an enclosed area, visit Stoddard’s Neck Dog Park! This park is uniquely surrounded by bay waters with a four-foot rock wall encompassing the rest of the off-leash area! The natural barriers make for a scenic backdrop as your pooch explores the large grassy area and splashes in the water. You’ll love getting some exercise right alongside Fido on the park’s walking paths. There’s also cleanup bags available, plus picnic tables and benches. If your dog is a furrific canine citizen with excellent recall, check out Bare Cove Park. Dogs with the aforementioned qualities are allowed off-leash throughout the unfenced park, so long as they stay within eyesight and you cleanup after them. The 469-acre park is pawpular for its paved walking paths that meander near the Weymouth Back River. More-Brewer Park is another woofderful spot to explore in the neighborhood with your leashed dog.
