Whether you're taking a vacation with your four-legged friend or simply want to mix up your regular walking routine, this deck helps you navigate the most dog-friendly routes and attractions all five Burroughs have to offer. Each of the 50 cards outlines a self-guided on- or off-leash adventure, with a detailed map on one side and insider information on the other.
