Labor Day is a time to celebrate the achievements of American workers. So if you’ve got the day off (as you should) why not celebrate with your doggo? Here are some fun ideas for celebrating Labor Day with your dog.
Dog-Friendly Places to Visit with Your Dog
Labor Day weekend is a great opportunity to spend some quality time with your furry friend! Who doesn’t want an extra day off work they can spend with their dog?
Have a park day
Let’s start off with the easiest one of all – have a simple park day with your pup! Bring some toys, pack a picnic, and enjoy a beautiful day spent outdoors with your four-legged friend.
Visit a National or State Park
There are countless national and state parks all over the USA that have dog-friendly hikes available, especially in Southern Utah: Snow Canyon State Park, Zion National Park, and Bryce Canyon National Park are all great places to take your pup for a Labor Day hike.
Head to the Beach or Lake
If your dog is like mine, then they get absolutely hyped to play in the sand! Unlike my dog though, your dog most likely loves to play in the water (I know she’s a weirdo). What better way to treat your furry pal than spending the day at the lake or a beach?
If you live in southern Utah and don’t feel like taking a trip to the closes beach in California, head to Sand Hollow State Park, or even Lake Powell!
Stay at a Pet-Friendly Hotel
Southern Utah is teaming with pet-friendly hotels! If you want to get away for the long weekend but can’t stand the thought of leaving your pup at home, consider staying at one of these amazing places that will welcome you and your furry friend with open arms!
Some of the most popular pet-friendly hotels in Southern Utah are:
– The Best Friends Hotel and Mercantile in Kanab Utah
– The Dwellings in La Verkin
Utah
– The Cliffrose Lodge and Gardens in Springdale Utah
Have a Happy Labor Day Weeknd!
