Although dogs are not allowed in the food court, there is lots of outside seating where you may sit and eat with your family.

Spend a day with your dog hiking the Desert Vista Trails in Phoenix, Arizona. There are a number of paths that branch off from the trailhead, ranging in length from one to six miles.
