Eat out and enjoy your time with your dog
If you want to spend time with your dog outside, there are plenty of options available in El Paso at all times of the year. Being able to find these locations is part of learning to love the city from a dog’s point of view. However, it’s good to remember that your dog needs to be well-behaved if you’re going to spend time with them in public.
