The Dog Park

The Lake Lucile Dog Park is open all year. It's a fenced-in space for dogs to run at the Lake Lucile Park entrance that's about 300 feet long and 60 feet wide. During the summer, there is water accessible for the dogs. Although there is limited parking, there is enough of space for Fido to run around, play fetch, and sniff his heart out.

The Bearpaw River Brewing Company welcomes pets. This brewery is managed by four brothers from the valley who make fresh handcrafted beer for hardworking Alaskans. The taproom serves a variety of beer varieties on tap as well as in kegs, growlers, and bottles to take home. Bearpaw is open from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. Sunday through Wednesday, and from 12 p.m. to 8 p.m. Thursday through Saturday.



Dogs enjoy playing off-leash in this park in Russian Jack Springs Park's northeast corner, but they must be kept under control because the area is not fenced.

Russian Jack Springs Park is around 300 acres in size and offers a variety of year-round activities, including a golf course, a dog park, and one of the best sledding hills in Anchorage!
