Is your dog tired of being cooped up all winter inside your Branford, CT apartment at Montoya?
Are Montoya’s grounds a little too sprawling for your pet to roam off-leash? Or maybe you’re just looking for a change of scenery while walking your four-legged friend? Branford’s dog parks are fun in the spring! Now that the weather’s finally warming up, head to the dog park for some fun and exercise with your pet! Branford has two great dog parks, just minutes from the pet-friendly apartments at Montoya:
Our Dog Park at Short Beach, 421 Shore Drive, Branford: This lovely dog park near the beach is a great place to socialize your pet. It has a permanent metal fence that is safe for dogs of all sizes, and they’ll enjoy having a grassy area with drinking water. Plus, there’s a double gate entrance to prevent any accidental escapes. The one potential drawback is there is no separate area for small dogs. This park is easy to find, located right behind Branford’s Adult Day Care Center.
Youngs Pond Park, Branford: This is a fenced dog park that has been reviewed as very friendly, and a great place to bring your pet for some fun and exercise. However, it is not recognized as a dog park that is recognized by the town of Branford. For a stroll through the park with your dog, there are also marked trails where you can take your pet on a leash. And during the summer months, your dog will love frolicking in the swimming pond. Bring your own water to this dog park to make sure your pet stays hydrated. Youngs Pond Park is located off Route 146 in Branford. (Once you turn off Rt 1, you’ll stay on this road for about 5 miles.)
Or, plan a fun day trip to a new park! A list of Connecticut dog parks can be found at www.dogparkusa.com/connecticut.
