Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden holds its Dog Date Stroll on Sunday morning, September 27, from 8 to 10 at 10901 Old Cutler Road in Miami. Dogs on leash and their people walk the shade of the collections before the heat, along paths past trees, ponds and rare plants, and the garden opens its morning for the four-legged neighbors. It is the calm start the dog deserves.

A walk that sets the pace of the week

The stroll is short, easy, and kept open for an hour and a half, with the path available for dogs and little ones. Families follow the morning with a coffee and a slow walk home, and kids ask to come back before the car gets warm. For the families of Pinecrest, Coral Gables and Palmetto Bay, it is an anchor of the weekend, the outdoor habit that the kids and the dog both ask for.
