If you like beautiful beaches, breathtaking mountains and lots of dog-friendly things to see and do, then don’t miss the city of Carpinteria, CA! Just ask Bliss and Seven. They love to visit the beach community with a small-town feel.
Rincon Park is beautiful, located on top of the bluffs, with picnic areas and a dog-friendly hiking trail. There is another trail with a separate set of stairs that leads dogs and their owners down to the beach. Dogs are allowed on the beach North of Rincon Creek. Your pet is welcome to join you at this fun park, as long as they remain on-leash. Dogs are not allowed on the beach South of Rincon Creek.
Rincon County Beach is dog-friendly. Bliss and Seven love to explore the little tide pools and sniff out some wildlife. Don’t worry, they’d never hurt another creature! The beach is located next to a private gated community on the Santa Barbara County line. The shape of the point makes this beach a catch for driftwood and seaweed that can be piled up onshore sometimes during the year. Lifeguards are not present, but swimming for both canines and humans is common.
Bliss and Seven enjoy strolling the town, especially when mommy’s in the mood to buy them presents. (And, when isn’t she?) The whole city is filled with wonderful things to buy and most of the stores are dog-friendly. Bliss and Seven have to take mommy’s word that Robitaille’s Candies is not to be missed, but it’s the vintage and antique treasures that Bliss howls about. She’s so hip. There’s also a cool pet store, Lemos Feed & Pet Supplies, with huge boxes of cookies right at doggie nose level. Seven loves to hang out there with his head in one of the boxes, liver flavored hearts being his favorite.
Many of Carpentaria’s restaurants are dog-friendly. Bliss recommends dogs and their owners try Crushcakes & Cafe, especially if you like baked goods like she does. Everything is freshly made with love and that smell could drive a dog wild! Bliss and Seven are thrilled when mommy’s writing group, Tea With Toni, meets there because they get to lay on the cool patio cement and sometimes, mommy shares her eggs. Bliss and Seven are particularly fond of the group's pack leader Tony Lopopolo, a self-proclaimed dog lover and former New York Executive Editor who’s working with mommy on her memoir, Sleeps With Dogs.

The story mommy got the PAWlizer for comes from the book. Toni’s helping her expand her knowledge and learn what's required of 21st Century memoirs. We’re all hoping when all is said and done, the book will “bow-wow” editors and agents and get mommy a publisher’s contract. Paws crossed.
