    Dogs allowed but watch for cactus!

    Dogs are allowed on any road and two small hikes. The road to one of the hikes is dirt so I walked the pups along that which was nice! Beautiful park but make sure to keep a close eye on your dogs - one of mine got quite a few needles in his shoulder from just barely walking off the road.

    Dogs allowed but not dog friendly

    Visiting saguaro with my doods makes me so nervous! there are obviously cacti everywhere but we also encountered a rattler on the trail. there are only 2 paved trails and they get HOT! so make sure your dog has booties.

    Cool Park But Not Really Dog Friendly

    This park was beautiful and the landscape with the cacti was awesome. The scenic drives in the different park sections were fun but there are only two hikes dogs are allowed on. They are both paved nature trails that are less than a half mile. It’s is a beautiful park but not really for dogs.
