Yellow-to-Blue Trail at Kendall Pond
This cute little trail is a little close to a busy road, so plan on practicing your perfect recall, or keep the fur babies on a leash. Fortunately for my kids, the interesting smells are on the water side, so I let them run loose. Beaver Brook is cool and clear, and only 3/4 mi from the trailhead.
When you're done, stop by PetsPlus just around the corner and stock up on yummy treats... our favorites are the small heart-shaped Darford cookies. Sadie sticks her head right in the bin as soon as we walk in the door.
