Colorado Springs #1 City for Dogs

Do you think you've given your pooch everything? If you live on the East Coast, would you consider moving West to ensure a happier, healthier dog? Men's Health ranked the top 50 cities for dogs and 9 of the 10 are West. And how did they rank these cities? They looked at the number of dog parks, vets, pet stores, boarding, shelters, etc. and number of dogs living there. The more dogs, the more dog-friendly the city, and the more friends your dog can have!

Colorado Springs, CO made the top of the list. New York, NY only made it to number 37. Bummers! But understandable. Not much room to roam around here. Here are the top ten:

1. Colorado Springs, CO
2. Portland, OR
3. Albuquerque, NM
4. Tucson, AZ
5. Seattle, WA
6. Denver, CO
7. Austin, TX
8. San Francisco, CA
9. Tampa, FL
10. Sacramento, CA
