Fall is the perfect season to enjoy spending time outdoors with your pet.  It's a great way to get exercise, and keep your dog happy and healthy.  Here are a few of the many dog parks in Brooklyn to visit with your pet this fall.

Dog Runs
Dog runs are fenced-in areas where dogs can exercise unleashed.  There are several dog runs int he Brooklyn area.  Here are a few you might want to check out with your pet.

Off-Leash Areas
Certain parks allow your pet to be off-leash while the park is open.  Each park has designated rules that include making sure that your pet is well behaved, licensed, and vaccinated against rabies.  Here are a few of the off-leash areas in Brooklyn.
