Located just east of Los Angeles, Pasadena may be best known as the home of the famous Rose Bowl and the Rose Bowl parade. But this city is also a popular place to live, especially for families and students.
Like most of the L.A. area, Pasadena is densely populated, and not everyone has the backyard space for their dog to exercise properly. For those looking to give their dog room to run, here are 10 great off-leash dog parks in and around Pasadena, CA, you can visit today!
Before heading out to one of these off-leash areas in Pasadena, check the rules for the dog park. Dog parks can be high-stress environments for many pets, so keep a close eye on your pup to see how they’re handling the visit. Although the parks can get busy in the afternoon, you can visit them earlier if your pet is not fond of crowds. Some locations provide water and other amenities for your dog, but it’s best to bring your own supplies.
