Have you ever considered how far you walk with your dog? If you walk just 15 minutes a day you will have walked far enough in your dogÕs lifetime to cross the United States. With all that walking ahead of you, aren't you ready for a new place to take a hike? A new book seeks to help you flush out those great hiking spots. Doggin' Delaware: The 40 Best Places to Hike with Your Dog in the First State explores the stateÕs best trails with your best friend in mind. While walking the dog, Delaware author Doug Gelbert also brings along generous helpings of local history, botany, geology, architecture and more. Delaware can be a great place to hike with your dog. Inside the First State you can hike with your dog on sand trails, climb hills that leave you and your dog panting, walk on some of the most historic grounds in America, explore the estates of AmericaÕs wealthiest families or circle lakes for seven miles and never lose sight of the water. Also included are local beach regulations for dogs...listings of area dog parks...outfitting your dog for a hike...low impact hiking with your dog...and much more. Doggin' Delaware: The 40 Best Places to Hike with Your Dog in the First State is whimsically illustrated with original drawings by native-Delaware artist Andrew Chesworth.

This review is from: Doggin' Delaware: The 40 Best Places to Hike with Your Dog in the First State (Paperback)
For years I have driven through the state of Delaware on the way to somewhere else thinking what a pretty little state, but oblivious to the wonderful parks my canine hiking buddies and I would be welcomed.So far we have visited five of the parks mentioned in this book and I feel like we have discovered a secret garden. My dogs love the water, the rivers and the woods that they can run freely in and this book has opened a new adventure closer to home for all of us! On top of all that we are even learning quite a bit of history about the land and its founders as the author offers up great tidbits in every chapter. Great book for those looking for a guide to discovering the "wilds" of Delaware.
