This may or may not come as a surprise but it turns out that Seattle is one of the most dog-friendly cities in the US. And honestly, it makes a lot of sense after all this city has so much outdoor space. Not to mention, a lot of pooches were adopted during the pandemic. So we’d definitely agree with this ranking.

Although that being said, Seattle is sitting at number 19 so we have some work to do. But according to a study by SmartAsset, we have 1.9 dog parks per 100,000 residents and 351 dog-friendly restaurants. And that’s not too bad if you ask us.
