In Phoenix, start your adventure in the Historic Roosevelt District. Start off in the early evening at Rott N Grapes RoRo, a popular wine bar, restaurant and shop that is themed after the owners’ love of dogs! If you need a bite to eat, there are freshly made pizzas, paninis, bruschettas, salads and more—and treats for dogs!
From there, head to Margaret T. Hance Dog Park to get your dog some exercise after the summer heat cools. Walk north along 3rd Avenue toward Portland Street, crossing over the freeway and by the park. Take a right on West Culver and the park will be on your left. Make sure to bring plenty of water for those sweltering summer Arizona days.
