Dog Days of Summer

It is hard to believe that today is the last day of July - time flies! As we enter the "dog days of summer," we wanted to share some activities that you can do alongside your canine companions! Golden is a very dog-friendly town, from restaurants, to attractions, to outdoor activities. Why leave the dog at home if it can join you on your daily or weekend outings?

Restaurants (via Bring Fido)
Golden City Brewery: Beer and man's best friend - what could be more ideal? At Golden City Brewery, pets are welcome to join their owners at its courtyard tables.

Cannonball Creek Brewing: Breweries must love dogs! Dogs are allowed both indoors and outside at Cannonball Creek.

Anthony's Pizza and Pasta: Enjoy a slice outdoors - dogs are allowed out on the patio!

Mountain Toad Brewing: Great brews and great company - dogs are permitted on Mountain Toad's patio!

Attractions (via Visit Golden)
KONG Company Field Trip: KONG has been manufacturing rubber chew toys for years, and understands that your dogs need variety (or else they'll chew your shoes). The company produces a wide range of products and different dogs need different types of toys. For example, an active dog requires a different toy than a constant chewer. Take a trip there to find your dog's ideal style!

Spaw Day at The Green Paw: For many people, pets aren't just animals, but part of the family. As we would our children, we love to spoil our pets, too. Treat your pet to a "spaw" day at The Green Paw! Voted "Best of the Best Grooming 2014," uses "natural, nourishing and environmentally responsible products" to bathe and groom to perfection.

Outdoors (via Visit Golden)
Jog on City Trails: If you have an active dog, going for a run on any of Golden's paved or mountain trails will be a fun workout for both dog and owner! Did you know the City of Golden has 24 miles of trails?

Puppy Playtime at the Park: Golden has two city dog parks where your dog can socialize, play and make new friends! Tony Grampass Memorial Sports Complex's dog park allows pets to run and roam off-leash. Just remember to keep your dog leashed until you are within the dog park, and to bring a towel in case the grounds are damp. If you have a smaller dog, Homer's Run Dog Park is probably better suited for you.

Once completed, Outlook Golden Ridge will also be very dog-friendly. Our community will have its own "paw spa" where you can rinse off your dog after a day at the park! We will also have our own "bark park" on-site! We want your pets to feel right at home, too! Until then, take your dog on a field trip to any of the above-mentioned locations for a day of excitement!
