Trail of a Hundred Giants

Sequoia National Forest welcomes canine partners! Dogs must be well-behaved, kept on a six-foot leash at all times, and kept inside an enclosed vehicle or tent at night. A maximum of two pets are allowed per owner at any one campsite. The Sequoia National Forest is known for its breathtaking scenery, which includes towering trees, soaring granite monoliths, glacier-carved canyons, roaring rapids, and more. The Sequoia National Forest has three National Recreation Trails: Summit, Cannell Meadow, and Jackass Creek. Information on trails, leisure, attractions, passes, and permits can be found on the official website. Dogs are not allowed on constructed swimming beaches in the National Forest or in Sequoia National Park, which is nearby.

A fantastic off-leash park in Exeter, a small but picturesque hamlet located off Highway 198 on the way to Sequoia National Park. A huge place to exercise your dog, plenty of seating and shade, and a friendly walkable downtown area to enjoy boutique and antique shopping are just a few of the dog-friendly amenities.

Rails-to-Trails Conservancy, a nonprofit organization working to establish a countrywide network of trails from former rail lines and linking corridors, supports the Tulare Santa Fe 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 Tulare! A parking lot with easy access to the Tulare Santa Fe Trail is shown on the map below.

Relax at a beautiful Bakersfield park, where your pet is welcome to join you on a leash. A fenced dog run is also available where your pet can run off-leash.

The dog-friendly Cody Kelly Bark Park in Visalia, CA, is located next to Plaza Park and offers lots of space for Petzooie to run about off-leash. It also features a separate little dog area, chairs for owners, running water, and shade trees.

The Big Red Barn's Murray Family Farms Fruit Stand welcomes dogs! Bring Petzooie with you when you go grocery shopping for fresh fruits and vegetables. 18 varieties of cherries, blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, peaches, apples, oranges, artichokes, asparagus, tomatoes, and pumpkins are among the seasonal favorites. A variety of jams, jellies, pies, jerky, baked products, and snacks are also available. Murray Family Farms is one of the rare fruit stands where the majority of the things sold are grown on the premises. Dogs must be kept on a leash at all times and are not allowed in the petting zoo, the paid agrotourism area (save for one weekend a year when they host a Dog Days event), or the store.
