There is a un-fenced, shared use off-leash dog area in Jamesville Beach Park which accesses the Jamesville Reservoir. Proof of a current rabies vaccine may be required on site.Dogs on leash are allowed in the rest of the park except that they are not allowed in the beach areas during the summer beach season. During the winter dogs may use the beach areas on leash. There is a disc golf course in the park. Dogs must always be cleaned up after throughout the park.

There's tons of wonderful natural beauty to explore in this extensive, little-known Syracuse park. Your pet is welcome to join you on-leash.

This fenced dog play area has a dog obstacle course, and large run area with pea gravel. There are two separate areas for small and big dogs. The entrance has two gates so dogs cannot escape enclosed area. No Fee. Onondaga Lake park also has an excellent dog walk path (on-leash, with doggie bag stations) that goes for 5 miles along the lake that is shared by pedestrians. Separate path for wheeled activities (bicycles, rollerblades, etc), so dog can run with you as you ride.

The Canalway Trail- Old Erie Canal State Park is one of 1600 rail-trails supported by Rails-to-Trails Conservancy, a nonprofit organization that is working to create a nationwide network of trails from former rail lines and connecting corridors. Previously an unused railroad corridor, this "rail-trail" is now a great place to walk Fido in East Syracuse! The map below shows a parking area with convenient access to the Canalway Trail- Old Erie Canal State Park. Rails-to-Trails Conservancy has generously provided map data for this trail to Bring Fido for informational purposes only.
