Occasionally, we stopped by to let our dogs out to romp, but found they were usually asleep. There is a doggie day care facility in town called Sun Valley Animal Center . And, they are also a full service veterinary hospital. At the end of each day, we let the dogs run around the ski slopes and walked through the village at the base of the lifts. Then, we strolled around downtown Ketchum and browsed through the shops.
Many stores welcome dogs inside, and just about everybody walking by stopped to greet our dogs.
We had to put the dogs back into the car while we ate dinner, but in the summer there is probably lots of outdoor dog-friendly dining. We were in Sun Valley for just a long weekend, and feel like we just touched the tip of the iceberg. Hot springs abound in the area, but we didn't have time to visit them. And, we missed out on all the good hiking in Sawtooth National forest. Apparently there are lots of mountain lakes.
