Dog walking in North Wales

Eighth Street

Another adopted park that is a refreshing place to visit is Hess Park. There are paved walking trails, a playground, and pavilions here where you can enjoy the great outdoors with your best furry friend. You will need to keep your dog on a leash for your visit. The walking paths are paved and are less than a mile long, which makes them the pawfect place to walk dogs who don't need much exercise. You will need to bring doggie waste bags with you to help keep the park clean and tidy. Drinking water will also come in handy as there are no water fountains.

Ninth and Church

Right on the corner of Ninth and Church, you will find the entrance to Ninth Street Park. This is a drainage control park, which means that there are seasonal run-offs that flow here to make a seasonal pond. During the wet months, you can find a variety of wildlife playing in the water. During the dry months, the benches are available for bird watching. The best part of this furrific park is its footbridge, which provides a magical setting for your walk and is an excellent place to snap a pic of your pooch! This is an on-leash park, and you'll need to bring waste bags with you.

Assi Plaza

Just behind North Wales' Assi Plaza, you will find a wood-chip trail that leads to Montogery Township Dog Park. It can be hard to find, but it is worth the effort. The double-gated entrance leads to two separate areas where your dog can play off-leash. There are water stations, doggie waste stations, and benches for you to sit on. The park is open daily from dawn to dusk. Your dog will need to be leashed on the trail to the dog park. The best part of this park is that the city keeps it clean and well-maintained and plans on adding new features soon!

Downtown

Are you hungry after playing in the parks? Do you need somewhere to stop and grab a bite? Well, don't take your dog home just yet! Come on over to The Green Fork and Local Roots Market, located in the heart of the borough. You can find just about anything you're craving, from sandwiches and wraps to soups and salads -- this place has it all! Your dog can even eat with you at any of the outdoor tables. There is live music on weekends, and art from local artists adorns the walls. What are you waiting for? You and your dog will pawsitively love this place!

Montgomery Mall

We know that you eat well most of the time, but there are times when you just want to pig out, which is why you'd be barking mad to miss out on Grub Burger Bar! You simply have to try the Scorpion Burger, which has just the right amount of heat. Don't do spicy? No problem! They have tamer options, too. They even have Alaskan Salmon on the menu. The adult milkshakes are so good that you will wonder where the alcohol is. Oh, did we mention that there are nineteen dog-friendly tables for you to choose from? Come on down and get your grub on!
