This Bozeman Dog Is Currently In Top 5 For National Contest.

We all know that dogs are man's (and woman's) best friend.  They're loyal and loving, and always seem to be glad to see us whether we've been gone for 15 minutes, or 15 days.

Bozeman is undoubtedly a dog-friendly town.  We have lovely dog parks, plus many businesses allow and even welcome your 4-legged friend to accompany you when shopping or in some cases, dining out. It's one of the many reasons so many people love Bozeman.

Currently, one of our canine residents is in the running for a big award.
