Dog walking in Kersey

17th Street

If you're feeling lazy and don't feel like cooking, drive just 8 miles to Greeley, Colorado, where you'll find a few yummy places to grab some grub with your pooch. One of them is Chipotle Mexican Grill. Their whole patio is set up for you and your dog to share some nachos, tacos, or any of your favorite Mexican dishes. Wash it all down with your favorite beer, available on tap or bottle. They also have margaritas or fruity mixed drinks if you prefer something lighter. Come empty and leave feeling full and refreshed.

St Michael's Square

The Tavern is a local bar and eatery that serves up yummy dishes with locally sourced ingredients. You can try a pizza topped with mushrooms and veggies grown right around the corner! Of course, there are many other dishes that will get your mouth watering if you're not in the mood for pizza. Unsurprisingly, The Tavern also has a full bar to choose from. You can bring your dog with you to enjoy some delicious pub fare in a friendly atmosphere. They are even open late on the weekends. To get here, all you need to do is make a eight-mile trip from Kersey. Just remember to bring a leash for your pup.

F Street

Rover's Run Dog Park is a small dog park located just eight miles from Kersey. Let your pup off-leash here to feel the wind in his fur and make some new canine companions. This is a small dog park and does not have separate areas for smaller dogs. There are trash cans, but you need to bring your own doggie bags. The watering stations are always clean and ready for you to use. You and your dog will love this park, especially if you are looking for a quiet spot to get away for a little bit.

West Greeley

The Poudre River Trail starts off slightly west of Greeley. It is about ten miles from Kersey. The trail is part of a 21-mile trail system set up by the Rails-to-Trails Conservancy. It passes through numerous natural areas which Fido will love exploring. There are parks with rest areas along the way, but you will probably want to carry your water bottle with you. The trail takes about four hours to walk, making it a great way to spend an entire day. You and your dog could walk the whole thing, or just enjoy a short hike to the fishing spots.

42 Street

Evans, Colorado, about nine miles from Kersey, has a pretty good sized dog park called Freedom Dog Park. There are three separate areas for you to enjoy: the large dog side, the small dog side, and the training area. All three areas have both sand and gravel, but very little grass. The pet parents have their own seating area where they can sit and chat. You will have access to clean water stations and fully stocked cleaning stations while you are here. So come on over and plan on spending some quality time playing with your dog!
