Rosie's Dog Beach in Long Beach, CA - A Dog's Vacation! 

Are you the proud owner of a Long Beach dog that is bored and tired of the same routine?  Is it the same trip around the block, day after day, week after week, mostly consisting of him/her sitting there while you yack to neighbors about the latest thing little Timmy or Rebecca did? Why not try Rosie's Dog Beach or one of the many dog parks in Long Beach?

Like humans, dogs need socialization, interaction, mental and physical stimulation.  It's because of this, Long Beach has gone to the dogs!  There are now 5 designated dog zones consisting of four dog parks and a dog beach in the city of Long Beach!  Your dog can frolic, play, meet new friends while at the same time, releasing the day's stress of not being able to catch the mailman, paper route boy or the squirrel that taunts him/her relentlessly.
