Dog Areas in Youngstown
Youngstown, Ohio is dubbed the “Fastest Shrinking City” because they have lost the most people since 2010. As a matter of fact, they have lost two percent (!) of their population in two years and have lost an amazing 60 percent since 1959! This is all due to the deindustrialization of the city after the steel mill strikes. However, what they lost in population, they gained in charm. Dog lovers still enjoy the city, and there are approximately 15,000 living in Youngstown.
Looking to let your furbaby run off-leash with other dogs? Paws Town at Boardman Park has about three acres of fenced-in fun with separate areas for big and little pooches. There are assorted toys and an agility course and benches and water fountains for the pups and their humans. Other nice features are shade trees, fire hydrants, and a wooded area for little hiking if you want.
Mill Creek Park has close to 3,000 acres of lakes, trails, picnic areas, playgrounds, and more. There are nature trails, boating, fishing, swimming, educational centers, cabins, covered bridges, and a suspension bridge. The trails add up to 15 miles of easy to moderate hikes that go along Mill Creek and the Newport Wetlands to an observation deck over some natural deep-water ponds.
