It's National Public Lands Day and free entrance day to National Parks throughout the US!

Today is National Public Lands Day, the country's largest single-day effort to spruce up parks and other open spaces throughout this great country of ours.

Have a little time to spare today? National Public Lands Day (NPLD) is the nation's largest, single-day volunteer event for public lands in the United States. Find out how you can clean up your National Parks, help build a trail, plant a few trees and more!

Or another way you can honor this pawsome day is to enjoy your local National Park with your dog! This special day is also a Free Entrance Day, a great day to get out there and have some fun!

Just be sure that your local National Park allows dogs. To find out, check the US National Park website, search for your local park and read up on the things you need to know section. DogFriendly.com also has some of the dog rules for the 10 most popular National Parks.

Happy weekend! Hope you have a great time with your dog!
