Our Guide to Brighton & Hove's Dog Friendly Parks

Whatever the breed, from bouncy Labradors to pocket-sized Chihuahuas, a good walk is one of the best things you can do for your dog. Regular outings keep them fit, help manage their weight and burn off energy that might otherwise be aimed at your sofa cushions.

Just as important is what happens in their heads: sniffing around in green spaces is a proper workout for the brain, helping dogs feel calm, content and pleasantly tired when they get home. So let them stop at that interesting tree. They’re not dawdling, they’re reading the daily news.

Whether you’re after a long ramble through the woods or a quick loop around a park, this is our guide to green spaces in Brighton & Hove where four-legged friends are welcome.

With 24 dog-friendly spots to choose from, you’ll find parks all over the city where your dog can stretch their legs, sniff every tree and burn off some energy.
