SARATOGA SPRINGS, NY
Saratoga Springs may be notorious for race horses, but Mayor Johnson wouldn’t mind if it were notorious for dogs too. Thanks to Melanie Dallas of Sloppy Kisses, Adrianna Flax of the Saratoga Arts Council, and more than 30 businesses and sponsors that made Saratoga’s Dog-Friendly Downtown kick-off possible, that may now ring true.
THE WAY IT WORKS
The blue sticker pictured here, when displayed on participating storefronts, acts as an invitation to walk in with your dog, year round and no questions asked. While small shops may have size restrictions and restaurants may allow patio seating only, you’ll always be in the know. Just visit the Dog-Friendly Downtown website for an interactive map listing all participating businesses and their possible limitations.
For more about the people behind Saratoga’s Dog-Friendly Downtown initiative as well as the history and growth, watch Malanie Dallas’ interview on Saratoga.com. This model would be an exceptional start for any city.
