When’s the best time to take a golden to the park in summer?
Early morning or after sunset from June to September. Goldens’ double coats hold heat, and artificial turf can get hot enough to hurt paws. The Golden Hour app shows the feels-like temperature at each park before you go.
How is the Golden Score worked out?
Each park gets up to 100 points. Water to swim in counts most, then room to run, a fence, shade, drinking water and the ground, plus extras like a big-dog area or rinse station. Details we couldn’t confirm count as average. See all 150 Georgia parks ranked.
