A dog exploring Brandon

The dog-friendly guide to

Brandon

An unexpected event beside the Assiniboine River.

Field notes August 2026

Our practical notes from a dog-friendly road-trip stop in Brandon, Manitoba.

We planned to use Brandon's Riverbank Discovery Centre and surrounding park as a break between Winnipeg and Regina.

A pow-wow changed the parking and our plans, but wandering around the outdoor event with Tilly still made for a worthwhile stop.

Unexpected visitAn event on the grounds changed normal parking and access.
Outdoor breakWe could still wander outside with Tilly and stretch our legs.
Return neededWe did not see the discovery centre or its usual park areas.
