Courtesy of AllTheSmokies.com, we would like to reshare some relevant information on resources for pets and pet owners that are looking to call the Tennessee Smokies home. This post consists of links to popular subject matter such as the National Park’s policy pets being allowed on the hiking trails along with brief excerpts; followed by listings to stores in the area relevant to pet goods and hotels that accept pets should the need arise to stay overnight while in transition.
Pets On Hiking Trails In The National Park:
“Pets are allowed in campgrounds, picnic areas, and along roads, but must be kept on a leash at all times. The leash must not exceed 6 feet (1.8 m) in length. Two short walking paths permit leashed pets—the Gatlinburg Trail and the Oconaluftee River Trail. Pets are not allowed on any other park trails. Pet excrement must be immediately collected by the pet handler and disposed of in a trash receptacle. Pets should not be left unattended in vehicles or RVs.”

Dog Parks In Sevier County:
* Mills Dog Park
“The Dog Park at Mills Park features a great opportunity for large and small dog owners to enjoy with their pets. A pair of separate fenced-in areas, one for large dogs and one for small dogs, feature a double-gated entrance to prevent dogs from getting loose. Both parks offer a large fenced-in area for dogs to exercise and play off-leash.”

“The facility offers separate large and small dog areas, dog agility equipment, water, shade, observation cameras, Wi-Fi connectivity, benches and a designated parking/handicapped parking area. All pets must be vaccinated as required by City and State laws.”
