Download or read book 57 Dog-Friendly Trails written by Debbi Preston and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2024-05-30 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two events have happened since the publication of the original 2017 version of 57 Dog-Friendly Trails. First, the Caldor Fire in 2021 severely damaged some of the trails making them unfavorable for hiking. Second, new fees and seasonal closures have affected many trails. Thus, a revision of 57 Dog-Friendly Trails was necessary. Fortunately, I had found a number of new trails to replace the damaged ones, and I was able to move the time for doing others into months before or after fees are charged. California’s foothills and the Sierra Nevada are lush with trails taking you to different venues – wildflowers, waterfalls, alpine lakes, meadows, snow, and flowing rivers. Along with the variety of destinations, this revised book offers: all dog-friendly trails directions to 57 trailheads 4+ trails for each month for optimal enjoyment trails for mountain bikers and equestrians family-friendly trail options before and after the hike suggestions
Book Synopsis Doggin' Connecticut by : Doug Gelbert
Download or read book Doggin' Connecticut written by Doug Gelbert and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Connecticut can be a great place to hike with your dog. Within a short drive your canine adventurer can be climbing hills that leave him panting, trotting on some of the most historic grounds in America, exploring the estates of America's wealthiest families or circling lakes for miles and never lose sight of the water. I have selected what I consider to be the 57 best places to take your dog for an outing in the Nutmeg State and ranked them according to subjective criteria including the variety of hikes available, opportunities for canine swimming and pleasure of the walks. The rankings include a mix of parks that feature long walks and parks that contain short walks. No Dogs! Is there any more dispiriting day for a dog owner than driving to a new park and encountering the dreaded "No Dogs" sign? Doggin' Connecticut tells you the parks that don't welcome dogs. Also packed inside these 144 pages are... ...outifitting your dog for a hike ...dog-friendly campgrounds ...tips on practicing low impact hiking with your dog ...beach rules for dog...and much more. What makes a great place to take your dog hiking? Well, how about a paw-friendly surface to trot on? Grass and sand are a lot more appealing than asphalt and rocks. A variety of hikes is always good - long ones for athletic dogs and short ones for the less adventurous canine. Dogs often enjoy a refreshing place to swim as well. For tail-friendly parks our guides describe the trail options for your dog, evaluate park traffic from other users, tell you whether you will need a guide dog to find your way around and, of course, tell you how to get to the park. While walking the dog, Gelbert also brings along generous helpings of localhistory, botany, geology, architecture and more. So what are you waiting for? Grab that leash and hit the trail!

Book excerpt: Mama helped with the typing, but these are my stories about my puppy years. You will read about animals I befriended, happy times on the trails, and times when I was in trouble or scared by lightning, rattlesnakes, bees, and rain beetles to name a few. I have left the fence line unguarded too long now so I have to take off. Mama can continue from here. When Maggie joined our family, we hoped she would fill the void left by the loss of our first dog, Toots. We wanted a dog to be an ambassador on the trail, to love snow and water play, and to get along with other animals and people. At first, Maggie and Toots seemed like polar opposites. Ultimately, love proved to be the defining similarity and Maggie was so much more than a replacement. It has been an honor to share Maggie’s first years, and now with the arrival of two grandchildren, there is so much joy seeing her welcome Eve and Eli into our pack and our lives.

Book Synopsis How to Hike with Dogs at Our National Parks - Even When They're Not Allowed on the Trail by : Doug Gelbert
Download or read book How to Hike with Dogs at Our National Parks - Even When They're Not Allowed on the Trail written by Doug Gelbert and published by Cruden Bay Books. This book was released on 2014-11-13 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dogs and parks. Wed two of our favorite things together and you have the makings of a perfect day, right? Except at America's national parks. Save for a few exceptions, dogs are never allowed on national park trails and rarely permitted beyond a campground or picnic area. There is an old saying that goes, "Start explaining and you've lost the argument." The National Park Service goes to great lengths to explain their reasons for banning dogs outside of vehicles. Dogs endanger wildlife. Dogs interfere with people's enjoyment of the park. Dogs ruin the pristine environment. Dogs can introduce diseases that could decimate wild populations. Some parks cite the fact that just the scent of dogs will make prey animals frantic (at least that will keep the jittery critters out of campgrounds and picnics where apparently their wellbeing is not as big a concern). Some park officials go so far as to imply that they are doing dog owners a favor by keeping dogs out of the woods since they may become prey themselves. One park's regulations read thusly: "There is a strong possibility that your pet could become prey for a bear, coyote, owl, or other predator." What is a "strong possibility?" Better than 50%? 20%? Really? Any talk of the probability of a leashed dog on a trail being eaten by a wild animal that goes beyond "vanishingly small probability" is absurd. Tellingly, the national parks in Canada - which also receive millions of visitors each year and also protect wildlife - allow dogs on their trails almost without exception. And in the United States the prohibition against dogs on national park trails is not a universal edict. Individual parks are allowed to make their own rules regarding dogs. A handful have decided to allow dogs on the trails, the chance of man's best friend becoming some other animal's dinner be damned. Some have even become more lenient in recent years. Petrified Forest National Park used to allow dogs only on a few nature trails. Now the park declares: "Petrified Forest is a very pet friendly national park! Please take your furry friends on trails, even backpacking in the wilderness area." This is not a book about whether rules regarding dogs in national parks are right or wrong. It is about how dog owners - given the current restrictive playing field - can experience our national parks, take along their best trail companions, and still have their dream vacation. For each park, if dogs are not allowed on the trails, a nearby substitute is identified and described (dogs are usually welcome in national forests, for example. The burden on people and wildlife caused by dogs and a patronizing concern for a dog's well-being apparently cause less government worry in those woods). Only those national parks which can be reached by automobile are included. So with that in mind - grab a leash and hit the trail!
