What Makes Dallas a Pet-Friendly City?
Certified in the BETTER CITIES FOR PETS™ program in 2019, Dallas, Texas, scored especially well in the Shelters and Parks traits of our pet-friendly cities model. The city also reports it has many fun pet-friendly places.
Dallas’ Katy Trail, a 3.5-mile running and biking path through some of most of the densely developed areas of the city, is a favorite of Dallas dog owners. After a stroll or jog on a warm Texas day, the trail offers a variety of dog-friendly patios where two and four-legged residents can rest, relax and rehydrate.
