Dog Friendly New Orleans

Where To Stay, Walk, Eat And Drink With Your Dog In New Orleans

New Orleans sits on a bend of the Mississippi River, a city of music, food and ironwork balconies unlike anywhere else in America. The French Quarter, the Garden District, the Marigny and the Bywater are its best known neighbourhoods, and City Park and Audubon Park are its great green spaces, shaded by live oaks. It is a city that lives on its porches, its patios and its streets, and a dog is welcome on most of them. Spring and autumn are the months to walk it.
