Scouting out the Weekend: May 26th and 27th

Memorial Day Weekend traditionally marks the time when it really starts opening up for locals in Sarasota with less traffic, shorter lines (if any!) at restaurants and a more easy going pace for the summer.   If you are looking for a late afternoon outing with your pup, why not head down to Bayfront Park in Sarasota?  The little peninsula has a paved sidewalk, and plenty of green grass and trees to pull up some shade.

If you are in need of a light bite after your walk, stop by the dog-friendly restaurant right there, O’Leary’s. The food is classic bar fare,  but there’s a fun group at happy hour and dogs are more than welcome.

You can even sit bay side and let you dog play in the water.    More dog friendly restaurant options?  Sure!  Just check  SarasotaDog.com’s Doggie Dining Section.

If you are looking to add a four footed friend to your family this weekend, check for local adoption events on our calendar here.
