Dog Days of Summer

About this event

Beat the heat with your four-legged best friend. Early mornings are made for wagging tails and cool trails, and the Garden opens its paths for pups and their people to explore the desert together. Enjoy refreshing hydration stations, shady rest stops and plenty of photo worthy moments. Dogs not permitted at Gertrude’s by Tarbell’s, The RAF Gallery, Butterfly Pavilion or Cactus Clubhouse. For the health and safety of guests and dogs, please note the following: Stay hydrated! Water fountains and refill stations are located throughout the Garden. Clean up after your dog and deposit bagged waste in trash receptacles. Dogs must be on a leash, licensed and up-to-date on vaccinations. Owners must maintain control of their dogs at all times. Any dogs deemed to be aggressive to humans or other dogs will be asked to leave the Garden. Be aware of your dog’s limits and monitor your pet for signs of heat stress. Watch those noses and paws! Be alert to cactus pieces and other debris on the trails and do not allow dogs to wander off trail.
