The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in Guilderland

Winding Brook

In Guilderland’s Winding Brook neighborhood, you and Fido can go have a ball at Guilderland Dog Park! Locals say this bark park isn’t usually too busy, but that’s not a bad thing. It allows dogs that are a little shy to make some new fur-iends. There’s plenty of room for Fido to run around, and as this is an off-leash bark park, we’re sure that’s what he’ll be doing. The fence is secure, so you don’t have to worry about your curious dog making a break for it. Water is provided by the park, but you will want to bring along some waste bags to clean up after your pup.

Upper Washington Avenue

About eight miles east of Guilderland, you’ll find Upper Washington Avenue’s Westland Hills Dog Park. While you and Fido will love this dog park all the time, we’re certain you’ll love it a little bit more on the dog days of summer. Why? Westland Hills has wading pools for your pup to cool off in! While your pooch takes a dip in the pool, you can relax in the shade, as plenty of seating is available. The park also has everything you need for Fido, so you won’t need to bring materials along. Clean-up station? Check. Water? Check. Have a howling good time at Westland Hills Dog Park!
