Canyon Meadows Off Leash Dog Park

I actually used to go to Dr. E.P. Scarlett and had no idea there was a dog park here (although I walked from Braeside/​Pump Hill so I knew that people walked their dogs along 14^th St). It’s fairly small as far as dog parks go but it’s really not too bad. It’s got a big hill, so if you’ve got a dog that will fetch you could throw the ball up the hill to wear your dog out (or have one person at the top and one at the bottom, calling the dog back and forth).
There are some trees, which is nice, and it’s mostly fenced. Warning: towards the turnoff from Anderson on to Macleod, the fence disappears, so if your dog does know what a «street» is you may want to recall him/​her before you get too far so there are no squealing tires.
If your dog likes to exercise his/​her voice, as mine does occasionally, this may not be the best option… there are houses right down the hill and it echoes pretty loudly. And it does get loud on the Anderson Rd side (as if you hadn’t expected that).
Parking was pretty easy — there are some spots along the road that leads into the entrance of the off leash park.
