Dog runs are one of the safest places to let your dog off-leash and explore freely. With fenced up fields, your dog can run around, be in touch with nature, and socialise with other dogs!
As Singapore is warm and humid, beware of mosquitoes, fleas, and ticks. Remember to protect your dog with natural flea and tick prevention and check her coat thoroughly after play.
With that said, here is a comprehensive list of dog runs in Singapore.
