Boston is a fascinating city to explore and the good news for dog owners is that your dog is just as welcome in Boston, MA as you are. There are many dog-friendly hotels in the city, including several of the big-name groups such as Hyatt and Sheraton as well as many smaller establishments in the suburbs. Getting around the city with your dog could not be easier – leashed (or carried) dogs are allowed on all the metros, trains, ferries, and busses. Boston is best explored on foot, and your four-legged friend will love the chance to walk the 2-mile Freedom Trail, visit Minute Man National Historic Park, or have a run in one of the off-leash areas of the city parks. There are also many restaurants that are happy to welcome your pooch.
