Let Fido run free to his heart’s content at the Miller Meadow off leash dog area in Forest Park, just north of Riverside. You will need to purchase a permit from the Forest Preserve of Cook County, but the purpose-built three acres of doggie heaven is worth looking at. There is also a walking trail and play fields here for some extra fun, but you will need to put your pooch back on his lead for these. For a bite to eat in this area, head to Five Guys or R Place, where you can enjoy your meal with pup in tow at an outdoor table.

The path is paved, making for an easy, safe walk, and there are rest stops along the way. Protect the wildlife here by keeping your mate on a lead, and take your clean up bags too.
