OFF-LEASH DOG BEACH. Montrose Beach DFA (dog friendly area) is 3.83 acres, located at north end of Montrose Beach. The dog beach is a fenced-off area located on the northwest corner of Montrose Beach (the point closest to the city). Dogs are allowed off-leash on the beach but must remain leashed when going to and from the car, or anywhere outside the off-leash area. Everyone who uses the beach is required to have a DFA (Dog Friendly Area) tag to prove that their dog is vaccinated and in good health. The Dog Beach is open year round, during all regular Chicago Park District hours.
