Dog Days are back! Every Sunday in October your four-legged family member can join you for a walk (and sniff!) in the Garden. Dogs must be controlled by a non-retractable leash at all times and be current on all vaccinations and registrations. For the enjoyment of all, you must clean up after your pet.  

Dog Days are Sundays: Oct. 4, 11, 18 and 25 10 a.m. - 5 p.m. 

** NOTE**  Advance, timed entry tickets are required. Admission is FREE for Garden members and member dogs. Regular admission $8 for ages 13+; $4 for ages 3-12; children 2 and under are free. $4 per dog for non-members.  

Advance tickets are via timed entry slots: 10 a.m. - noon, 1-3 p.m., and 3-5 p.m. No admission to Garden between noon and 1 p.m. 
(You can arrive anyime during your time slot and do not need to leave before it ends (except when the Garden closes at 5 p.m. In the event of inclement weather, you may request change of ticket date within 7 days of your originally scheduled vist. Tickets not used will be considered a donation to the Garden.)
