  • Amberrhymer2925
    "The streets here are very friendly and good for walking dogs at any time of the day, or night. However, there are a LOT of stray cats, so if your dog is a cat chaser you may need to keep him/her on a tight leash. And keep them up to date with vaccinations. "

    "Dog owners may like that there is a walking trail that is dog friendly within walking distance of neighborhood homes. "
