This day is All About Dogs! This is the perfect opportunity to walk the trails in the Arboretum’s beautiful 65-acre Dog Commons. And then after your walk, stop to see BARKUTERIE Box for a pup cup, box of biscuits and our FREE pup selfie station!

Plus enjoy a costume contest, best trick contest, scavenger hunt, other local pet vendors, dog yoga and more!

The Arboretum’s Dog Commons area is not “just an on-leash dog trail." It is about the entire experience of being outside in a plant-rich landscape with an animal companion. A goal of the Dog Commons is to inspire a shift from walking the dog as a chore to walking the dog as a mindful and restorative experience that benefits health and well-being for humans and pets.
