| Florida Tips! |
| Florida has very strict leash laws. Dogs must be on a leash at all times. Generally we have found Florida to be very dog unfriendly. Don't expect a warm welcome. |
| Cool places to take your dogs. |
| Melbourne dog park where dogs are allowed to run free (but no smoking or eating allowed). |
| Atlantic Beach near Jacksonville (dogs are excluded from many beaches in Florida). |
| Florida's Scenic Trail which follows the dyke around Lake Okeechobee. |
| The Pinellas Trail which runs through St. Petersburg (closed after dark). |
| Hal Scott Park Nature Reserve near Orlando. Armadillos are numerous here, and watch out for snakes lurking in the Saw Palmetto bushes. Buy 'The Dog Lover's Companion to Florida' for directions to this and lots of other places. (by Sally Deneen and Robert McClure, Avalon Travel.) |
