Is your four-legged friend a part of your family? Bring them along on your visit to Cape Girardeau, where you'll find lots to do and see with your furry family member! You can't go wrong with a shady stroll through the wooded portion of the Cape LaCroix Recreation Trail, where your pup will have lots of new smells to investigate. Your dog can stretch all four legs at Dogtown, the local dog park, with separate areas for big and little dogs as well as a water fountain and a fun tunnel for your pet to adventure through. There are many pet friendly hotels in Cape Girardeau to choose from, and many restaurants have dog friendly patios where you can enjoy a meal with your pup, such as Katy O'Ferrell's, Burritoville, Bella Italia and Cup 'N Cork.
