   Sutton Wilderness Trail Park is located right outside Norman's First Courthouse district. The trail here is relatively easy and good for all skill levels. Dogs are also able to use this trail but must be kept on-leash. Keep an eye out for rabbits, skunks, possum, and squirrels, as well as birds and waterfowl near the pond. If Fido would prefer to run around unencumbered, the park also has a designated area where they can play off-leash, which includes a separate small dog area, benches, and trees. Sutton Wilderness Trail is a very historic area. The property belonged to the Griffin Memorial Hospital, and the patients would fish the pond.

   The nearby Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge is a breathtaking spot to go hiking with the pooch. Established in 1901, this is the oldest managed wildlife facility in the United States Fish and Wildlife Service system. Spread over nearly 60,000 acres, you’ll encounter a dazzling array of plant species, birds, fish, reptiles, and amphibians. The refuge is also a grazing habitat for American bison, Rocky Mountain elk, and white-tailed deer. Dogs are welcome, and there are a number of on-leash trails in the refuge, but leashes must be no longer than 10 feet and all pet waste must be removed.
