Rails-to-Trails Conservancy, a nonprofit organization working to establish a countrywide network of trails from former rail lines and linking corridors, supports the Ojai Valley Trail, which is one of 1600 rail-trails supported by the group. This "rail-trail," which was once an abandoned railroad line, is now a terrific spot to walk Petzooie in Ojai! A parking lot with easy access to the Ojai Valley Trail is shown on the map below.

At Soule Park, the Mitchell Edelson Dog Park has two separate fenced-in play areas, one for large dogs and the other for small dogs weighing less than 20 pounds. The entrance to the enclosure is double-gated, preventing dogs inside the cage from fleeing when another dog enters. There are benches, old oak trees that provide shade, and water fountains for dogs.

Rose Valley Falls Trail is a short, simple hike in the Los Padres National Forest that takes around half an hour with Petzooie to complete. This walk is ideal for those looking for a short hike, especially if they have little children with them. There is just a tiny amount of uneven ground with a couple of small stream crossings, which may be difficult for the old.

Piedra Blanca Trail is a 2.5-mile easy hike in the Los Padres National Forest that will take Petzooie about 2 hours to accomplish. This trail begins by crossing Sespe Creek, a National Wild and Scenic River, and continues through the natural beauty of the area. There are gorges along the creek, as well as the endangered California condor. A stunning fall hike is made possible by the changing colors of the trees. Because some portions of the trail are covered with thorny bushes, it's a good idea to wear pants.
