Denver, Colorado loves dogs!

100 real estate tips in 100 days

Dogs are very popular in Denver, in fact dogs are popular in the entire state. It seems most everyone has a dog. A walk in the park will prove not only do they come in all shapes and sizes, but every breed under the sun!

KK - This is a great series. Lots of dogs here, too, and many buyers inquire about the parks, ec. You have provided a terrific resource for folks who are relocating to Denver...and of course you are the REALTOR they should be calling for assistance in their move.

Hi Krystal.  Is that your yellow?

Dog parks are wonderful.

We miss our Boo Boo (our Chocolate that passed almost two years ago).

Thanks for writing,

Ken

Kristal, so not only has Denver gone to the dogs, but they named a dog park after me!

That looks like my lab. Every time I leave her in the car, she jumps into the driver's seat until I get back!

Whenever I work with out-of-town buyers, they're always amazed at how dog-friendly we are!

See ya at the Berkeley dog park!

My sister says you can't live in Denver without a dog - it's a requisite!  We just adopted our first dog in 10 years about 6 months ago.  He loves dog parks - especially the illegal ones you don't mention here!
