There are people who love dogs and those who don’t. The two don’t mix well, and most dog lovers are in a perpetual hunt for pooch-friendly locales where their Labs can lope leer-free.
“Canine Colorado” helps in the hunt. Boulder’s Cindy Hirschfeld and her four-pawed pal Clover traversed the state to create this collection of trails, parks and hotels. Trails are “tail rated,” giving pets and their owners – oops, in Boulder they are known as “guardians” – an essential guide for year-round pooch play in Colorado’s mountains.
Mountain biking, skiing and hiking trial descriptions include the best locations for slurping water and ditching the leash. Only Clover’s sniff-worthy hotels – a growing rarity in Colorado – are listed. So are local vet clinics, canine events, pet stores and doggie daycares.
If your companions travel on four legs, you need this book.
