This time of year is a beast in the city. Hot and sticky isn’t exactly the weather that pulls us out of the house to be active with our dogs. Here in Philadelphia we are lucky to have so much great parkspace to enjoy. Don’t let it the greenspace in your area go to waste! A quick jaunt to a dog park in your neighborhood like Clark Park, Schyukill River Park, Seger Park, Mario Lanza , or another such city park may seem to be all you can manage, but you can do better than that.
It’s not that hard to pick one evening or weekend day and take the pooch on a true adventure to a bigger, greener park than usual. Try a hike in the Wissahickon Valley or just enjoy a long walk along Kelly Drive. You’ll get out, get some exercise & meet people and their dogs… and so will your pooch.
A good time will be had by all.
Great advice and gorgeous, gorgeous dogs. The beauty on the far left looks like a dog I used to have – loved him to distraction! – Joi
GREAT suggestion! There are also some fantastic places in Fairmount park to check out! And, you could get lunch at a restaurant with outdoor seating in Manayunk.
