I was recently introduced to the wonder that is Fairview Park in South Fayette. We took Lily and my neighbor's goldendoodle, Winnie, on a field trip to the park one day, and they had a grand old time. If you haven't visited Fairview, I would highly recommend it, especially if you crave some off-leash time for your dog. The park is located right off of Boyce Road in South Fayette, and it basically consists of acres of fields with paths carved out through them. And this isn't some underground dog park where you have to fear being caught letting your puppy run free. In fact, the whole fielded area is know as the "free range zone" (or maybe it's free run?), and you'll most likely run into other owners and their dogs enjoying the park just the way you are. Guy and I took Lily and Lola back twice before the weather outside turned frightful, and it was well worth the 20-minute drive. Lily absolutely loves exploring on her own, and it gives us a chance to practice her recalls. It also gives Lola a chance to socialize with other dogs we meet along the way, and she can follow after her big sister.
If the weather clears up sometime in the near future, or even if it doesn't -- if you're brave enough to face the cold -- definitely take your dog(s) to Fairview Park. It's fun and, best of all, free!
