Dog walking in Peabody

Proctor

Main St / Washington St

If your four legged friend is a sports fan, put a leash on him and head over to O’Connar Park or Marrs Park in the Main Street/ Washington Street area of Peabody. Both of these parks have baseball diamonds and tennis courts so you’re sure to catch a game or a friendly match of tennis.  When you’re done rooting for the home team, take him for a walk around the park or wander into the surrounding residential neighborhoods. This area is also home to North Boston Dog Training. If your dog needs some help with his manners, call and schedule a private lesson, group class or in home dog training. He’ll be a regular gentleman in no time!

Jubilee Dr / 1st Avenue

Is your dog itching to learn some new skills? Take her over to Loyal Canines Academy in the Jubliee Drive/ 1St Avenue neighborhood. This is not your regular dog training facility; Loyal Canines offers puptastic classes that will get your pup’s tail wagging. Sign her up for the Track and Scent Detection class so she can learn to put her sniffer to good use. With Protection Training, your dog can learn to guard her two legged family members. Or give the action-packed Sport and Agility a try. In this class, watch your dog dart through an obstacle course that includes ramps, jumps, tunnels, weave poles and sea-saws.  Whatever you choose, your furry friend is sure to have a doggone good time.

South Peabody

When it’s time to give your canine friend a new ‘do, book an appointment at Doggone Purr-Fect in South Peabody. These professional groomers will treat your pup as one of their own. Your dog can get a shampoo, brush or cut in this well maintained grooming salon. Once she’s looking her best, take your leashed fur baby over to Raddin Park. She’ll appreciate the opportunity to show off her new style while getting some fresh air and exercise. This park has a playground, so your pup will have a chance to socialize and get to know some new two legged friends. If it’s a hot day, make sure to bring water.

West Peabody

If your pup has a hankering for a waterfront walk, there are a couple options to choose from in West Peabody.  Start with a stroll around Winona Pond. This tree and shrub lined path winds around the pond and is an excellent place to get those four legs moving.  The occasional sound of frogs may perk up your dog’s ears and get his attention. You can also head over to Suntaug Lake. As you make your way around the shore of this local lake, let your pup sniff and explore the abundance of new smells. Make sure to pause and catch a view of Humphrey’s Island.
