If you are a dog owner in Seattle, you owe it to your four-legged friend to take him or her to Magnusson Park at 65th & Sand Point Way. It’s a huge off-leash park with areas to play fetch in, a secure beach to swim from and even a separate park for ‘small and shy dogs.’ I was there with Macy today and she had an absolute blast.

Magnusson was an old Navy base and on one stretch, you can see turbine blades from decommissioned submarines driven into the ground as a sculpture. It’s a great spot to take your dog. We’ll be there again tomorrow.
