In August 2023, I went to Goshiki-numa in Fukushima Prefecture with my dog. Goshiki-numa is a lake area in a national park and rich in nature. You can take your pet on a leash. Although we went to Goshiki-numa, we only saw Bishamon-numa, which is the closest to the entrance.

In August 2023, I stayed at Nature Cottage Akabeko in Fukushima Prefecture with my family dog. This is a cottage where you can stay with your pets.

There seemed to be many other people staying here with their dogs and many people were taking walks with their dogs.
