Dog lovers enjoy living and spending time in South Orange, just 20 miles west of New York City. If Fido is not a city-savvy pup, the tranquil neighborhoods of South Orange are perfect. You can walk over to Farrell Park and let your pooch run around in the ballfield and chase a toy. Walking laps through the gardens will also give you some extra exercise, or you can relax on the shaded benches.
Going out for lunch with Fido at the Town Hall Deli is great if you are craving soup and a sandwich. When the weather is warm, you can sit at one of the outdoor tables and chat with friends while your pup relaxes with a bowl of water.
Pampered pups want to look their best, so plan to visit to Pet Wants with Fido where you can buy healthy dog food and homemade treats. You can also buy collars, leashes, and clothes for your furry companion. Another option for dog food is Zen Pets where the owners are friendly and knowledgeable, and will help you and your pooch find the best food for his needs.
Taking care of Fido’s medical needs is quick and easy if you visit the only veterinarian clinic in town, South Orange Animal Hospital. In addition to medical care, the office offers prescription diets and medications.
Whether you have one pup or several furry family members, spending quality time walking and playing with the pups will keep them and you healthy and happy.

Hey Everyone!! My name is Devyn and I absolutely love dogs.
