Thank you for taking extra good care of London!

Erika G.

Yes, thank you for noticing his big scab. I have a vet scheduled for Sunday but rescheduled for Saturday but might have reschedule it for today as the vet is concerned and said I shouldn t wait that long. Can you take Rico at the vet and meet me there at 5:30pm?

Raquel S.

Aw! Thank you so much!! You re so kind and being late happens, everything worked out. Haha I appreciate you letting me know, giving Rico a water and broth cubes! And pouring cold water on his head and neck to help him cool down. I usually leave the windows open because it gets really cold in there but it s getting hot and humid enough that I may have made a mistake of leaving the windows open. If it s too warm in the apartment, do you mind closing some of the windows? I ll be sure to tip you additional. I refilled his portable water bottle if you want to take that heavy bottle with you. You can also play fetch with him>walking him. He does see fetch as a transaction only command he won t follow without a treat. So you give him a treat then he ll give you the toy. I say drop it for the heck of it

Raquel S.

Thanks!

Chloe S.

Hmmm, I wonder why it s runny. My poor gut. Thank you for letting me know. It was good in the morning

East Harwood Heights

Make your way east to East Harwood Heights, and you’ll find yourself at the prime location for some good greasy grub. Known for their fast food style fare, Jay’s Beef is the perfect place to take your dog if you’re craving one of the best burgers you’ll ever taste. Your pup can relax with you at one of four outdoor tables, but be sure to bring plenty of water and a collapsible water bowl for your pup pal. While you’re at it, throw in some of those liver flavored treats your precious pup loves so much! They’ll be salivating too.

North Long Avenue

A ways south from Harwood Heights, you will find yourself nearing North Long Avenue. This little area is renowned for the beautiful Chopin Dog Park, where your leashed canine is welcome to join you for all the scenic views. Beautiful is an understatement for this park, and your pup will think it’s pawsitively perfect! Bring along some waste bags and some fresh drinking water for the both of you, and have a good old time socializing and meeting great new friends -- pup pals and people pals alike! Your stud will be the star of the show and is sure to receive plenty of pats.

Albany Park

Spend some time near enough to the big city, and you’ll want to explore Chicago proper. There’s no better way to kick off your doggy day trip than enjoying a day at River Park Dog Park near the neighborhood of Albany Park. Your pup pal can have a blast in this fenced in area, just next to the swimming pool. You and Fido can watch the park visitors make a splash, though your pup is probably more interested in tennis balls than cannonballs. With this in mind, bring your pal some playthings, and plenty of their favorite treats.

West Ridge

Another way to enjoy the sights is to make your way to West Ridge, home to the well-maintained and beautiful Warren Park. While not a dog park, your canine companion is still welcome to join you as long as they remain on a leash! This shouldn’t stop a pawfectly good time, as your pup is sure to enjoy walkies at their master’s side. Best for canines who are good with crowds, Warren Park has plenty of shaded seating areas, and you’ll have a grrreat time making your way across the gentle grassy slopes of this pristine and refreshing park.

Wicker Park

Finally, to fully immerse yourself in the local sights and sounds, make your way to Wicker Park in the heart of Chicago. Inside the main park, you’ll be greeted by a number of humans and hounds exploring the fenced-in Wicker Park Dog Park within. This park is usually pretty crowded with locals, so use this to your advantage and help your shy pup socialize. You’re sure to meet some friendly individuals, and your dog is sure to enjoy greeting some new friends -- of course, only with the most formal butt sniffing. Just bring some water and waste bags and you’re sure to be set!
