Off-leash areas

No dedicated off-leash park tagged in Chandigarh so far. That is usually a mapping gap, not a real one: pet shops and vet clinics know the informal spots.

In the meantime, the dog walking guide covers parks and routes where leashed dogs are welcome.

Local tip: pet shops and vet clinics are the best source of current local knowledge -- which parks are busy when, which patios genuinely welcome dogs, and which trails to avoid in tick season. Ask; people love sharing.

Good to know before you go

Vaccinations and tags. Keep proof of rabies vaccination handy; some parks and all kennels ask for it.
Leash laws. Outside designated off-leash areas, assume dogs must be leashed.
Heat. If you are visiting in summer, walk early or late and test pavement with your hand; if it is too hot for you, it is too hot for paws.
Vet backup. Save the number of the nearest clinic below in your phone before you need it.
