Get Rover in Shape at Your Local Dog Park

Dog Parks

I was watching a news show when a segment about pets came on. I couldn't believe my ears when they started to talk about how some dogs can be obese and get diabetes.

I was shocked and was completely unaware. So I compiled a list of area dog parks for pet owners to take their pets to get his or her needed exercise. There are different requirements for different parks and each location can include benches for the humans, water spigots for the four-legged visitors, doggie waste bags and other amenities.

So find the park nearest you in these areas:

• Sacramento
• Carmichael
• Citrus Heights
• Elk Grove
• Fair Oaks
• Roseville
