- UPDATE:
Rosie is reunited with her owner. Found dog. Very friendly. Definitely belongs to somebody. We're on Grimsby Court. (Nextdoor Emerald Vista) - My dog loves being able to go off leash around water, but the 3 hour drive to the beach is too much for me all the time.
Does anyone have any good recommendations for places in the sacramento area where I can take my dog to play in the water? (: (Nextdoor Laguna West)
