Dog leash policies resume May 1 at Little Long Pond

As we head into spring, a friendly reminder that the Preserve’s seasonal dog leash policies go back into effect on May 1, 2026. For the safety of wildlife, visitors, and your pups, all dogs must be kept on leash between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. through September.

Policies are in effect year-round at Hunters Cliffs and on the trails around Thuya Garden where dogs must always be leased. Dogs are not permitted on Harbor Brook Trail. Before your next walk, please take a moment to review the full guidelines here.

Thank you for helping protect the Preserve and all who enjoy it.
