It’s important to determine if your dog really is the type to enjoy an outing in nature. That was one wet winter and most of us — including our dogs — were starting to go pretty stir-crazy with all the rain. Now that spring is almost upon us, it’s time to get outside again.
Be sure to prepare for your foray into nature by bringing lots of water, a water bowl, poop bags and a map or smartphone with GPS. If you’d like to keep your load light and your dog is strong enough, consider a special doggie pack in which you can stash water and other supplies.Dawn Falls, Baltimore Canyon Open Space Preserve, Larkspur
While the hikes listed above are dog-friendly, most require your dog stay on-leash. For off-leash romps, consider the Oakwood Valley Trail near Tennessee Valley, Rodeo Beach in the Marin Headlands and almost all fire roads in the county. Remember, you may only let your dog off-leash if you have voice control. Having solid recall is essential.
