Paws on the Run offers two separate parks, one for the small breeds and the other for the larger kinds. It's spacious and allows your pet the opportunity to run off all that energy while maintaining the safety of your animal and others since it's securely fenced in. They also have a double entrance for extra protection and to avoid a possible escape. Prior to adopting our dog Bella we never took our other dogs to the park since they are Chihuahuas and we have a small area of our own yard fenced that is suitable to their exercise needs. But with a larger pet this park is really a great place to allow her some outdoor leash freedom. The park was built in 2010 as a gift from a local family. I understand they have done a decent amount of updates over the years, like plant trees, provide benches, a dog pool for warmer months, outdoor water source for drinking water as well as some tunnels for agility activities. The park is open year around but with all the rain we have been having the park is a bit of a mud pit. I am excited to take our girl here in the spring and summer months. There are a list of rules patrons of the park are to adhere by but it seems at least one is not exactly being followed. I noticed a LOT of dog doo. I wish pet owners would be more disciplined in cleaning up after their pets. It's not only gross it can spread diseases. Otherwise it's a great park for our furry friends.

Hound Haus - East Liberty's New All-Day Hangout for You and Your Pup…read moreJust opened in Pittsburgh's East Liberty neighborhood, Hound Haus is a creative new venue that combines a coffee shop, bar, event space, and off-leash dog park--all under one roof. Whether you're looking to get work done with a coffee, wind down with a beer, or let your pup burn off some energy, this is the spot. I stopped in and tried their maple vanilla latte, which was super cozy and comforting--perfectly balanced and not too sweet. I also had a warm muffin that was absolutely delightful. The drinks are crafted with Commonplace Coffee, and there's a rotating selection of prepackaged sandwiches, salads, and baked goods through Catapult Culinary available all day. The space itself is bright, modern, and immaculately clean. You can sit inside or out on the dog-friendly patio, where pups can roam while you relax. Dogs do need to be registered at the front check-in station and must be vaccinated, spayed/neutered, and at least 4 months old. Hound Haus offers daily, monthly, and annual passes--but you don't need to bring a dog to enjoy the vibe. It's a welcoming place for anyone to sip, snack, and socialize (furry friends optional). The owner is incredibly friendly and clearly passionate about creating a space that's both functional and fun. Whether you're a dog owner or just a dog lover, Hound Haus is worth a visit. Open Tuesday through Sunday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Unfortunately, it was raining and no other dogs were there. The separate fenced-in areas are of good size, but located on a slanted hillside. It is sometimes hard to walk if the grass is wet.

We brought our dog Trooper because he's my sons and we knew it would be a great surprise for him. Trooper is a great pup so we didn't HAVE to find someplace like this but having a public park available certainly made the trip more pleasant. This park is beautiful. Extremely clean and well loved. There were flowers freshly planted and benches everywhere and lots of personal touches. The park is free and open to the public which is wonderful. There is a separate section for the smaller dogs which doesn't have a lot of shade but the main large park has a nice big shaded section to escape the sun. Outside of the fence are picnic benches so you can have some lunch while your pup gets to play. There is a portable toilet here as well so not fancy but definitely nice to have! I think we will make this a regular meetup spot for our family as we love to travel with our pets.

Duff Park is a wonderful park for hiking. Since we started incorporating hiking into our weekly…read moreworkout regime, we have found that Duff Park offers a lot of challenging hiking trails and some flatter biking trails. I suggest if you are new to the park to grab a map located at the main parking area off School Road South in Murrysville. I am not sure if this park offers a playground or picnic area as I have never seen it, but I am fine with that since we come specifically for the hike. There are plenty of trails to navigate through and some are very steep and narrow. Specifically one section of Forbes is reminiscent of being in the jungle. The vegetation is up past your shoulders, overgrown and covers the trail. You somewhat just follow the stamped down path that is rather unnerving if you do not like not being able to see where you are stepping. There are also many benches to rest on as you walk the trails as well as informative plaques posted on the trails detailing different trees and vegetation. You can definitely get a good workout in if you navigate several different trails. Though not all the trails are good for kids I would say there are plenty that you can take grade school kids on without any major issues so it can be a nice family workout as well.

I occasionally bring my dog to the dog park to play with some pals. My main complaint is that the dog park section is on a fairly steep hill and it gets very muddy and it stays that way. There are three sections for the dogs, but usually one part is closed to let the grass recover. Also, my dog is on the smaller size and goes in the small dog section. Sometimes people let their bigger dogs in that section. She gets run over even though it's play. Parking is good, but it does get crowded by the deck hockey arena and dog park.

The large, open space is perfect for a private celebration as there's plenty of room for socializing, but also places to set out food and presents. The owners behind the bar were absolutely fantastic. They were quick to provide samples of anything on draft, recommendations based on your flavor preferences, and quick to work through the line. No one was waiting long for a drink. Parking is along the street, since this is on Penn Ave, but we didn't have an issue finding a spot a block down. They mentioned having some fun things planned for when the weather starts to improve. I'm looking forward to visiting again.
