Lee Gerner Park, Slade Park, and Scottsdale Pond are a short drive away from home. These parks give dogs a chance to let their fur down and take a good walk on leash with their favorite human. Dogs in need of grooming after that walk can get it at Perro’s Grooming at 208 Vintage. Perro’s can take a bit off the top, or just give a soothing bath and comb.

Northwest
