Leash Free Dog Park
The City of Niagara Falls has approved funding for a new leash free Dog Park which is planned to be located at Firemen's Park. City staff are working with the Stamford Centre Volunteer Firemens Association (SCVFA) and the public to develop the first designated leash free dog park area. The Leash Free Dog Park will be completely fenced and have separated areas for large dog breeds and smaller dog breeds.
