Devereaux Heights
About 23 miles away from Petersburg is a place where you can take your pooch to romp around and meet new fur-iends! Stuart Dog Park is located on the border of the Deveraux Heights neighborhood in Carpenter Park. If you have a pooch that's on the small side, you don't have to worry because small pooches have their own separate fenced area to play in. Both doggie areas have covered seating areas for the doggie parents. Water fountains are available, as well as kiddie pools so your pup can dip their paws! Waste baggies are provided, and the agility obstacles will make the experience even more pawesome!

Glen Aire
Sometimes, hiking on a trail surrounded by nature can be far more rewarding both for you and your doggo than a simple dog park. If you and Fido pre-fur hiking, try the Lost Bridge Trail, located around 33 miles away from Petersburg. This paved trail is 5.6 miles long, making it a good challenge for you and your furry friend. This trail welcomes leashed doggos and is easy to moderate in difficulty. The terrain is mostly flat with some small elevation gains. This shaded trail is the perfect activity even in the summer!

Another quick trail that's suitable for those of you who have less time to spend is the Lewis Memorial Acres Trail. Located 20 miles away from Petersburg, this trail is around 2 miles long, but it provides plenty of pawesome experiences for you and your pooch! Even though the trail is fairly short, it's very well-maintained, and you can see wildlife, wildflowers, and bridges along with beautiful nature. The dog owners who visit this trail often let their pups run off-leash -- officially, your pup must be leashed, but don't be surprised if you see other furry friends running free! Use your best judgment, and always keep a leash on hand.12
