Final Thoughts
Arizona’s best known for the Grand Canyon, but don’t just visit it once and stop there! Consider checking out Horseshoe Bend, Bell Rock, or any of the state’s other numerous dog-friendly hiking trails. We highly recommend bringing way more water than you’d need and plenty of sunscreen too, as the Arizona sun is unlike anything else.
