    "Stray cats that are in town are a problem for dog owners. There is also no dog park located in Peru. "
  • Emily F.
    "we have many places for dog owners to walk their dogs like Riverwalk, maconaquah park, nickle plate trail"
  • 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. "
  • Christie B.
    "Dog owners may like that there is a walking trail that is dog friendly within walking distance of neighborhood homes. "
