Dog Walk is an unincorporated community located in Lincoln County, Kentucky, United States.
The origin of the community's name is disputed. One local story is that it came from a remark that the local young men "just walked the roads like a pack of dogs".[2] Don Brown, who organized the local Dog Walk Days festival in 1991, speculated that the name had Native American origins.[3]
