Grandview Park

The fun flies when dogs and their owners gather at off-leash parks

At about a dozen off-leash parks in the greater Seattle area, they run, they chase, they bark, they strut, they squat, they socialize and they sniff out the opposite sex.

And you should see some of the things the dogs do, too.

Scratch the surface of any off-leash area and you'll find out these free-ranging places are as much for the human species as the canine.
