Conclusion
There might only be one official off-leash dog park in Lacey, but the city is nestled between Olympia and Tacoma, and both places have several dog parks. It’s a bit of a drive, but they offer plenty of open space to explore and new dogs to play with. Remember that many off-leash areas are inside community parks, so you should only let your dog loose when safely inside the fenced dog areas.
