Features & Amenities
Dog Off-Leash
Dogs and their owners should be sure to follow the city's leash ordinance going to and coming from the dog park, and follow the dog off-leash rules and regulations while visiting the park. Learn more.
May 2021 Update: Following a six month pilot program and substantial neighborhood feedback, the Boise Parks and Recreation Commission voted to return Cypress Park to a designated off-leash area (vote was held during the commission meeting on May 20, 2021). Of the 7.3 acres that make up Cypress Park, 1.4 acres is designated for hourly dog off-leash use. The approved area is located to the east of the tennis courts, shelter, and playground, on the inside of the sidewalk. If you have questions about the pilot program or dog off-leash hours, please contact us by emailing bpr@cityofboise.org for additional information.
Dogs are allowed off-leash in the designated area in the mornings, sunrise to 10:00 a.m., and evenings, 4:00 p.m. to sunset.
Dogs must be on a leash at all other times during the day.
