It’s true – dogs are a man’s best friend. If you don’t think so, consider the fact that 70-80 million dogs are owned in the United States alone, according to the ASPCA To many of these pet owners, dogs aren’t just furry friends; they’re four-legged family members and, as such, they deserve the best attention and care.
In this day and age, there are plenty of fun activities to do with your dog outside of the traditional things like taking them to the park to play fetch or having a tug of war in the yard. Dog-friendly locations can be found in almost every state, and here are some of the best:
Doggie Bakeries in NYC
Everyone loves treats, including dogs. In New York, there are several renowned eateries and bakeries that also offer goodies for your special pet. You can grab a scrumptious cupcake for both yourself and your pup at Sprinkles on the Upper East Side of Manhattan for a small fee of $2.50 per cupcake. The dog cupcakes are so scrumptious looking, you can barely tell them apart from the confections made for humans. Each cupcake is completely safe for your dog to eat, is sugar-free, and is topped with a yummy yogurt frosting. There are also various Shake Shack locations around the city that sell Bocce’s all-natural dog biscuits, as well as yummy shakes and burgers for you.
Doggie Daycare in Sterling, Virginia
Once upon a time when people went to work, they would either leave their dogs outside in the backyard or inside the house in a cage or gated area. Nowadays though, there are locations where you can drop off your pup for the day just as you would your toddler. A state-of-the-art dog daycare center in Sterling, Virginia offers a cage-free environment, numerous play areas, and a variety of activities for your dog to partake in all day long. You can even opt for additional activities like a park stroll or roller run if your dog is playful and requires extra attention.
Bark Park in Henderson, Nevada
Unlike cats, most dogs are actually quite fond of the water – and water is a huge relief for dogs in Henderson, Nevada, where temperatures can reach up to 106° during the summer months. These intense levels of heat can make a dog lethargic and tired but if you take them to the Bark Park in Henderson (which sports a massive splash pad), they can cool off, stay active, and have a great time all in one shot.
Dogs are loving animals and their popularity is making it easier and more acceptable to give them the love and care they deserve, both at home and in public. It is not uncommon to see people bringing their dogs anywhere that will allow them. And with dog-friendly parks, bakeries, and daycare, that trend is only going to continue.
