Dog Days in Denver: Where To Go With Your Pup
Calling all Denver dog parents or Denver vacationers! Are you unsure what to do with your pup? Wanting to get out and about without leaving your furry friend at home? This one is for you!
Where to Stay
Looking to stay somewhere unique with some western charm? You and your “steed” (dog) can take a rest at Urban Cowboy. Complete with a bar featuring wood fire pizza and private event space, this historic building has got some charm with space for all kinds of visits. Check out this description: “With eight fireplaces and striking vintage charm, it’s where opulence meets whimsy.” What’s not to love?
Looking for more private lodging? Popular booking sites like Airbnb and Vrbo allow for a little bit more space and customization. Pet-friendly rentals in the city or mountains can keep you and your whole family (four legged members included) comfy and cozy.
Where to Eat
The Dairy Block describes itself as “a distinctly crafted Denver destination” in the heart of downtown Denver. Complete with 19 restaurants, this place is sure to please. Grab your food and head outside to the vibey dog-friendly alley.
Pints & Pups
If you aren’t just looking for pet-friendly, but rather pet-celebrated places, you have got to check this place out! Romero’s K9 Club is a “private, off-leash dog park” with rotating food trucks, a plethora of beverages, and a great place to picnic.
Located in the charming Old town Lafayette suburb, you can find a “relaxed atmosphere and bring the pooch along too.” This fun and funky place believes in including your pet in your plans, emphasizing socializing for all! This is the place for all pint and pup lovers.
Things to Do
Unsure of how to spend your time? Denver has the pup-friendly parks for you. Of course, there is the infamous Wash Park. Looking for a more up and coming park? Check out Sloan’s Lake! For a more serious adventure, check out pet friendly local hikes like Lair o' the Bear Park complete with a creek to cool off in.
