The Arkansas Museum of Natural Resources welcomes dogs. They let leashed dogs of all sizes to go about the ancient, but in some cases still operating oil equipment on display outdoors that tells the tale of the 1920s oil boom with their owners. A 112-foot derrick and a central power station capable of pulling up to 15 wells are among the museum's most spectacular exhibits. Smaller dogs are welcome to accompany you inside for a tour of a boomtown replica complete with an old jail and café, as long as they remain in your arms throughout. Inside, there are old trucks and gas pumps along the streets.In the theater, you can see a short film about the beginnings of oil and how to drill for it, as well as exhibits about how to drill for it.
