(SPOT.ph) Living in a highly urbanized center like Makati City can be daunting for pet owners. It's no joke looking for a safe spot to bring your pets for their regular dose of exercise and time outdoors. Lucky for us, more and more dog parks are popping up in and around the Metro. Case in point, we just found out that the Circuit Makati Off-Leash Dog Park is finally open. And the best part about this new dog park in the mall area? Your dogs can tire themselves out and release all their energy here for free!

Check out the newest off-leash dog park in Makati:
Open from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily, Circuit Makati's Off-Leash Dog Park is a great place for your fur baby to run, play, and socialize safely with other dogs. It's a fenced area dedicated solely to man's best friend, with lots of room for zoomies and having fun. The area is also grass-covered and well-lit, which means dog owners who live in the area and are looking to spend quality time with their pets after office hours can do so safely despite the lack of daylight. Alternatively, early-bird pet owners can also have pre-work outdoor time with their fur babies as the park is also open pretty early.
It was only last February when Circuit Makati teased that a dog park was soon to open on their grounds. And while the dog park's opening has been kept on the relative down low, Circuit Makati just released reels and videos showing dogs having fun at the newly opened space.
Here's a video showing the new off-leash dog park in Circuit Makati:
