Absolutely fine on a leash please! And always take any poo with you to a garbage can! I'm not aware of a ticket for off-leash but there possibly may be. Also, the squirrels are not bite-proof and probably look like a fun thing to chase for some dogs - please stay alert of your pup and don't allow any squirrel-dog skirmishes or injuries to the wildlife - or your pup! REMINDER! IT GETS HOT HERE IN SAC - plan ahead and never leave a dog in a hot car! - temps in a car can rise in 5 minutes enough to SUFFOCATE! Lots of nearby places will provide you water and will gladly allow your pup to be with you on their patios!

Excellent, meter parking in the street, 2 hours within 5 minute stroll to the main entrance. There is also plenty of side street parking fee around the area. We went on a Sunday so was quieter. It’s a beautiful place, so much history and well presented, hope you enjoy the building as much as we did. Hope this can help you.
