What are the Best Spring Activities with Your Dog?

Spring is made for dogs. It’s the best time for them to run amuck without the hassle of putting on a dog raincoat or cleaning off muddy paws. Try something new or exciting with your pup and make the most out of this spring season!

You might be wondering, what can I do with my dog? The answer is endless really, but we’ve narrowed it down for you. Below, we’ll go over the best dog friendly spring activities with your dog!

Neighborhood Walks and Hiking with Your Dog

Neighborhood walks where your dog gets to sniff and enjoy a multitude of spring scents is great stimulation for them. Imagine all the scents they’re taking in from a walk as short as fifteen minutes. This is perhaps one of the most underrated activities with your dog. They enjoy it thoroughly and it activates several parts of their brain which keeps them engaged and happy. Walking with your dog has also been shown to have health benefits for your dog’s human counterpart. 

Hiking in off-leash dog areas is another fabulous option for a sniff-a-ganza activity with your dog. Your dog can also play with sticks while carrying their own supplies in a fabulous doggy bum bag. Enjoy free movement without having to lug around your dog supplies. Let them carry their own weight and look cute doing it.

Paddleboarding and Surfing with Your Dog 

Paddleboarding and surfing with dogs has become a sensation, not only because it’s adorable, but also because it’s amazing enrichment for you and your dog. You both get to enjoy an activity on the water which can even help strengthen your bond. 

Be sure to pack water for both you and your dog. Bring sunscreen and wear an adorable set of matching bucket hats. Our dog hats are designed for the comfort of you and your dog. Acclimating your dog to the paddleboard or surfboard can take some time. Make sure you start on solid land before moving to the water.

Dog Parks and Beaches with Your Dog 

Dog parks are always a great spot to let your dog socialize while giving you a breather from being their nonstop entertainer. Sneak in a cute dog bandana so your pup doesn’t get lost in the haze of dogs. Letting your dog socialize with other dogs gives them a chance to take in new friends while you chat with their humans or maybe you take a minute to yourself.

A breezy beach day might be chilly even in the spring. If your dog has a light coat, you might want to consider dog clothes so they’re most comfortable on your outing. Check out off leash dog friendly beaches to let them run to their heart's content. Be sure that your dog has a solid recall or consider getting them an extra long leash to keep them safe.

Outdoor Dining and Festivals with Your Dog 

Outdoor dining with your dog gives them a chance to spend more time with you even when you’re out and about. Many restaurants now offer a puppy menu so they can have a snack while you’re eating. At the end of the day, most dogs just want to spend time with you and they’re happy to tag along wherever you might go. 

Dog friendly festivals continue to increase in popularity as the majesty of dogs spreads. Many festivals will have dog friendly activities and several water bowls scattered about. Be sure to check in with your local community to see what’s available to you.
