National Parks do not allow dogs on trails or anywhere other than paved areas & campgrounds. National Forests aren't as strict and state parks have the most lenient rules.

We do leave our dogs occasionally but not for long. At Zion, you have to take shuttles to see the park and of course, dogs can't go. We camped in the park at Watchman and fortunately had good shade & comfortable weather so left the furry ones for a couple of hours while we took the shuttles around. We made a trip back to check on them then caught the shuttle again.

I've not had any luck finding kennels that I would leave ours in.

This isn't completely true but not far off. We live close too, and I volunteer at, the Cuyahoga Valley National Park in Ohio. I don't know of anywhere except buildings, that you can't take dogs there.

Shenandoah NP, also, there are some trails they're not allowed on, but there are 500 miles of trail that they Are allowed on, I know it's different in many parks out west, where grizzlies, Lions, wolves, & coyotes like to make snacks out of them.
