For the next must-see stop on your doggy day trip, hustle on over to Breakers, a neighborhood in Long Beach. There is where you’ll find Discovery Trail, a path first trekked by Lewis and Clark. Though you must keep your dog leashed on the trail, that won’t get in the way of your barking good time. From the giant gray whale skeleton to the nineteen-foot bronze sculpture known as Clark’s Tree, you and your adventurous pal will have plenty to take in and explore while you’re checking out Discovery Trail. For doggy waste bags, look for the metal dog sculptures!

Make your way to Central Long Beach, a scenic area where you’ll find plenty of things to do and see -- the most notable being your option to stop in at Captain Bob’s Chowder. This quality local restaurant hosts a number of options when it comes to soups and, as you may have guessed, chowders. Clam chowder is always on the menu, but if you’re looking for something a bit different, check out one of their other options on rotation. Your dog is free to join you at any of the outdoor tables; just be sure to bring plenty of water.
