This two-day plan mixes easy walks, patio meals, and Packers-area sightseeing without overloading your dog.
Day 1: Downtown & Broadway District
Start with off-leash time at Whitney Dog Exercise Area, then grab coffee or an early bite near Broadway. If your dog prefers a calmer pace, swap in a leashed walk on CityDeck along the Fox River.
Check into a pet-friendly hotel like Residence Inn Green Bay Downtown or My Place Hotel. Spend the afternoon exploring the Broadway District, then settle in at Copper State Brewing Co. for patio time in the biergarten.
Walk to White Dog or The Depot for dinner on a dog-friendly patio, then take a sunset stroll back along the river before turning in.
Day 2: Lambeau Area & Titletown
Head to Meyer Dog Park or Brown County Dog Park for a longer off-leash session. After your dog burns energy, make your way toward Lambeau Field and Titletown.
Explore the outdoor spaces around Titletown, then have lunch on the patio at Homefield Pub + Social or stop by Badger State Brewing Company for a relaxed afternoon.
Finish with dinner at Hagemeister Park on the riverfront or a casual custard stop at Zesty's. If you’re visiting in warm weather, end the night with one more leashed walk downtown.
