City Hall has sectioned off an area at Joslyn Park dedicated to off-leash small dogs. The area is in the lower southeast corner of the park. Owners of small dogs may now let their pups run off-leash without worrying about nearby energetic and enthusiastic big dogs. The small dog area is a six-month pilot program scheduled to be evaluated at the Aug. 19 Recreation and Parks Commission meeting.
Dogs in the area must be 25 pounds or under, and all off-leash area rules and regulations apply in the small dog area.
For more information, call (310) 458-8974.
