Lookout Mountain

There are separate spaces for large and little dogs, shade trees, seats, and cool running water in this gorgeous, fully-fenced off-leash dog park. Any pet waste must be picked up right away by the owner. Dog waste dispensers called Mutt Mitts can be seen in both the large and small dog sections. The park may be closed in the event of severe rain to allow the turf to dry. For the most up-to-date information on wet weather closures, give us a call.

Do you require a new profile picture? Visit the Martin Auto Museum in Phoenix, Arizona, to get your photo made with Fido in a 1966 Corvette Stingray or a 1915 Model T, or any of the other antique automobiles at the museum, which were all given from Mel Martin's personal collection. You can touch and sit in all of the automobiles for a $5 donation (aside from two extremely valuable exceptions). A miniature carousel is available for human children. Small dogs are permitted at the museum but must be restrained or carried.
