Reed is here to remind you that there's ONE MONTH left of Winter Dog Days 2025! Dogs are permitted on Governors Island each year from November through April. If you’re visiting the Island with your canine companion, please make sure to review our rules in advance: ☑️ Dogs MUST remain on a leash, including while on Trust for Governors Island operated ferries. The off-leash dog park closed earlier this month to allow for lawn restoration in Colonels Row. ☑️ A free ticket add-on is required for visitors bringing their dogs over. This is available for ferry tickets purchased online. ☑️ Dogs are currently not allowed in indoor spaces on Governors Island. ☑️ Dogs must keep out of landscaped and planted areas. ☑️ You must pick up after your dog and place all dog waste in the landfill bins located around the Island — we’ll have bags available, but please bring your own just in case. ☑️ Dogs are permitted between November-April. At all other times, only service animals are permitted in accordance with New York State law. (fb)
