For all its glitz and glamour, Los Angeles County is one of the most pet-centric places in California. West Hollywood devised a law stating that pets are to be called “companions” and their owners “guardians." A slew of hotels and restaurants will cater to your pooch after a long day frolicking on the beach, hiking in the hills or hobnobbing in one of the numerous dog parks scattered throughout the county. Celebrities love dogs as much as the rest of us, so your Bella may even sniff out a famous Fido on your morning run in trendy Runyon Canyon. But even the stars can’t outshine the stunning natural beauty, stellar weather and welcoming atmosphere of LA County.
