Dog Days 2010

The Garden is once again going to the dogs this summer — and it's going to be great!

You know you've always wanted to bring your canine best buddy with you when you stroll our ten acres of fabulous gardens. Well, now you can! 
Get a leash on your dog (please) every Sunday from June 5 through August 29 (12 – 5 pm). Make a grand entrance through the Albert Paley-designed Kohl Gate on Wade Park Oval. And have your pick of gardens through which to meander.*

Water and treats will be available around the Geis Terrace.

In addition to the “oohs” and “aaahs” you’re used to hearing around the Garden in summer, “Come!” “Sit!” and “Stay” are likely to be part of the soundscape as well. We hope you’ll come often and find our summer Dog Days yet another way to make the most of your summer here at the Garden.

Garden members: Free
Nonmembers: $8.50
Children 3-12: $3
Members' Dog: Free
All other dogs: $2.00

* No dogs permitted inside the building, in the Western Reserve Herb Society Herb Garden,  or in Hershey Children’s Garden, please
