California's 550+ dog parks span coastal bluffs, desert valleys, and Sierra foothills. From San Diego's beach-adjacent spaces to San Francisco's fog-kissed urban parks, the state's geographic diversity creates wildly different experiences. Year-round mild weather keeps parks busy, though coastal June gloom and valley summer heat shift visiting hours. The culture is health-conscious and dog-obsessed - expect organic treats, rescue advocacy, and serious dedication to canine enrichment.
