Is this the BEST dog park in America? 🐾 Come along and celebrate America's 250th birthday with Tammy, myself, and Honey Badger—my Lycan Shepherd—as we explore the incredible wilderness of Minnehaha Dog Park. Nestled in the Mississippi River valley, this isn't just a park; it's a massive northern forest adventure right in the city.

Watch Honey Badger’s natural instincts kick in as she navigates the trails and interacts with the the other dogs in the park on a perfect misty morning.
