   Verona is a city in Wisconsin that's also a suburb of Madison, and it's home to more than 10,000 people. The northeastern corner of town is a half-hour drive from Black Earth, and that's where you'll find the Badger Prairie Dog Park. This off-leash park doesn't separate dogs by weight, so be prepared for your dog to meet friends of all sizes. Within the park, there are walking loops as well as agility equipment where your dog can show off for their friends. A small annual fee is required to visit the park, and the funds go toward keeping the park in such great shape.
