The last time I went there-- around late February-- they had been open a few hours in the morning and then a few hours in the mid to late afternoon.

The small dog section at Brinson is mostly on a steep incline so it is very difficult to try to pick up the dog's poop while also keeping from missteping and falling. You also need to look out for poop that has not been picked up which has no convenient markers as with the colored flags at Doggie Doo Run Run.

Brinson's large dog section is on more level land but its for larger pooches.
