The nine Arlington County Dog Parks are open from sunrise until one half hour after sunset, unless otherwise designated.
All dogs in the County must be on a leash and under the control of their owner or of another responsible person. The only exception to this law is when the dog and its owner are at a county-sanctioned, off-leash dog park. Dogs are never allowed on athletic fields.
An asterisk (*) following the name of a dog park indicates that the dog park is not fenced in or is only partially fenced in.
