Check out Bozeman’s awesome off-leash dog parks! Gallatin Valley may be home to 100,000 residents, but more importantly, over 22,000 dogs who need a place to play! Each city park features slightly different amenities and we’re sure there’s one that’ll perfectly match you and your dog’s needs. Especially if you are relocating to Bozeman, the process can be stressful. Knowing your pooch has awesome places to run wild helps! (Double check park rules as rules are subject to change with the City of Bozeman.)
