Next time your pup needs a walk, head over to the Jon J. Duerr Forest Preserve. Located right on a bend of the Fox River, this beautiful space is a favorite among anglers, bird watchers, and of course dog walkers. Wander through the woodlands with your furry pal at your side, then stop by the river and let him dip his paws in the cool water. Be sure to follow the Riverbend Trail to the natural eight foot high waterfall. If you’d like to continue your walk along the river, just hop on the Fox River Trail and head north or south for some additional mileage.

The Jim Hansen Park is a favorite among local athletes. This sports lover’s park has ball fields, soccer fields, sport courts, and a sand volleyball court. During games, there is even a concession stand open. Your four legged athlete will love socializing in this fun atmosphere. She’ll also love taking some laps around the paved walking path that runs around the park’s perimeter. Jog or run to get her heart rate pumping, then cool down with a slow walk through the grassy fields. Drinking fountains are available, so bring a bowl and make sure she has plenty of water after her workout.

Treat your furry BFF to a walk in Pickerel Point Park. This quiet park is located on a piece of land that juts into the Fox River, and is a perfect place to retreat to after a long day. Your four legged walking buddy will love trotting around this peaceful setting while enjoying the sounds of nature. The shore of the park is also a favorite fishing spot since it is not in the river’s current. Head over to the wildlife observation deck to get a great view of the river and surrounding woodlands. A trip to this park will definitely refresh your pup’s spirit.
