Meet Theo, Boulder’s Dog of the Day, captured mid-stride during one of his favorite activities: running around Boulder Reservoir and Coot Lake! This energetic pup knows how to make the most of Boulder’s stunning outdoor spaces, and these two scenic locations are at the top of his list.

Boulder Reservoir and Coot Lake are nestled side by side, creating a haven for outdoor enthusiasts and their furry companions. Boulder Reservoir is known for its expansive views, water activities, and wide-open spaces, making it a favorite spot for dogs to stretch their legs. Just a short walk away, Coot Lake offers a more tranquil vibe with shaded trails and peaceful waters, perfect for a cooling dip after a run.

Theo’s typical outing starts with a brisk jog along the reservoir’s perimeter, where he enjoys the open air and the stunning backdrop of the Flatirons. Afterward, he heads to Coot Lake, a quieter retreat where he can sniff the trails, splash in the water, or simply relax under the trees. These two spots complement each other perfectly, providing a mix of excitement and serenity for Boulder’s active dogs.

Dogs like Theo love the variety these areas offer, from sandy shores to grassy trails, making them ideal for high-energy pups and laid-back loungers alike. While enjoying the outdoors, dog owners are reminded to keep an eye on their furry friends, bring water for hydration, and clean up after them to maintain the beauty of these cherished spaces.

Theo’s love for Boulder Reservoir and Coot Lake is a testament to Boulder’s reputation as a dog-friendly paradise. Whether it’s running, swimming, or simply soaking up the scenery, Theo embodies the adventurous spirit that makes Boulder a haven for pups and their humans.
