Canada Bay

The inner west's Little Italy of the river — espresso, deli runs and the Bay Run a short lead away. Suburban, warm and reliably dog-friendly.

Home to the Bay Run, Sydney's favourite harbourside loop and an unofficial dog parade. Waterfront, walkable and built around getting outside.

A leafy river peninsula on the Bay Run, with foreshore parks and ferry calm. Quiet, scenic and made for a waterside stroll.

Grand homes, leafy streets and busy eats around the station. Green-edged, well-fed and good for an easy walk.

Acres of parkland, wetland boardwalks and wide-open green where the Games once roared. One of Sydney's biggest stretches of room to run — dog very welcome.

River on one side, Bicentennial Park's wide green on the other. Quiet, family-paced and handy to some of the inner west's best open space for a run.

Markets, outlet shopping and Olympic Park's parklands close at hand. Diverse, practical and handy to some of Sydney's widest open green for a run.

Leafy and well-connected, with local parks and easy transport. Family-paced and good for a daily walk.
