Downtown Dog Park

In August of 2017, the city's first ever off-leash dog park opened. Within Vernon Hill Park, this double-gated, enclosed, and protected area allows dogs and dog lovers a place to go and enjoy the companionship of other animals.

The Greater Worcester Land Trust is a modest 501(c)(3) non-profit based in Worcester, Massachusetts. GWLT was founded on August 24, 1987, with the mission of conserving and protecting Worcester County's valuable open space.

The Auburn Dog Park is adjacent to the walking track in Lower Lemansky Park (accessed through Brayman Street). The park is divided into two sections, one for large dogs weighing more than 25 pounds and the other for little dogs weighing less than 25 pounds.

The dog park has an enclosed space where dogs can mingle, play, and learn off-leash.

The Partridge and Ducktail Ponds Trails, which are easily accessible from Bangor, Brewer, and Ellsworth, allow access to remote feeling ponds, rustic camping, and a neighboring day-use area.

The Abington Dog Park is owned by the Town of Abington and administered by a volunteer-led nonprofit organization. Abington Dog Park's Friends.
