It is a locally-owned bakery with organically sourced treats! You can even order a giant dessert to-go if you want to share the sweets once you get home. Bone Appetit!

North Stafford

North Stafford is a great spot for dog walkers who love to snack and sniff their way through town. You will enjoy the Zibbibo 73 for sure! It is an Italian restaurant and wine bar with more than a dozen dog-friendly tables on their outdoor terrace. They offer pizza, pasta, seafood and more to satisfy every craving. Aquia Pines Camp Resort is a natural oasis where you can take your pup on a camping adventure if the two of you love to unplug and really connect on a long weekend.

Eustace Road/Gray Birch Drive

Autumn Ridge Park is located at the intersection of Eustace Road and Gray Birch Drive. You will find plenty of room to run and play in this open green park with trees and trails galore. Your pup will need to stay on a leash with you, but that doesn't mean you can't settle in for a picnic in the grass or some fun in the sun throwing around a tennis ball or two. Make sure you have lots of clean-up bags with you to help keep the park clean for the next round of pups to grace the grass!

East Stafford

East Stafford is home to the many marinas that sit on Aquia Creek. Seegars Point is a popular boat launching area and is the pawfect scene for you and your pup if you both have a love of the water. You can be adventurous and look into a pup-friendly boat rental for the day, or you can take in the sparkling view of the water. Widewater State Park is right across the creek and is the pawfect place for plenty of exercise hiking or strolling for hours with your canine companion. This state park welcomes pups on-leash, so pack up those waste bags and head on over!
