The city of Ontario is known as the "gateway to Southern California." It has its own airport and is an economic powerhouse in the area. Ontario and nearby Rancho Cucamonga are collectively known as the Greater Ontario Region or simply, GOCAL. There are many dog-friendly places to stay, restaurants, and places to take your dog. You and your dog can hike the Pacific Electric Trail, or splash in Big Bear Lake. Other major attractions are a short distance away, making GOCAL the perfect hub for your Southern California visit.
