Doggin Rhode Island The 25 Best Places To Hike With Your Dog In The Ocean State Doggin America Great Outdoor Vacation Ideas For You And Your Dog




Have you ever considered how far you walk with your dog? If you walk just 15 minutes a day you will have walked far enough in your dog’s lifetime to cross the United States. With all that walking ahead of you, aren’t you ready for a new place to take a hike with your dog?

Doug Gelbert, author of 21 books on hiking with your dog, has brought his pack to Rhode Island to sniff out the area’s best tail-friendly parks and trails for the new book, DOGGIN’ RHODE ISLAND: THE 25 BEST PLACES TO HIKE WITH YOUR DOG IN THE OCEAN STATE. Rhode Island 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. DOGGIN’ RHODE ISLAND explores the state’s top trails with your best friend in mind…

Where can your dog hike where Australian sailors once went ‘walkabout’?
Where can your dog hike by the boulder monument to the Nine Mens Misery?
Where can your dog climb an observation tower overlooking Mount Hope Bay?

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’ RHODE ISLAND tells you the parks that don’t welcome dogs. Also included is a Bonus Chapter on beach rules for dogs.

What makes a great place to take your dog hiking? Well, how about a paw-friendly surface to trot on?
Grass and sandy dirt 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 always enjoy a refreshing place to swim as well. For dog-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 local history, botany, geology, architecture and more. So what are you waiting for? Your dog will want to hike through the remains of a Revolutionary War sawmill? , hike to a grove of skeleton trees…

DOGGIN’ RHODE ISLAND is part of the series from Cruden Bay Books that helps dog owners locate tail-friendly parks and trails: DOGGIN’ AMERICA: GREAT OUTDOOR VACATION IDEAS FOR YOU AND YOUR DOG.
