This summer, your furry friends don’t have to miss out on the fun …  we’ve explored these eight local joints and can confirm, they are all dog-friendly! From delicious treats and water bowls for your beloved pooch to shady spots and wide umbrellas for puppers to bask under, these bars and restaurants welcome your doggos with plenty of belly rubs, tidbits, and head-pats. So get out, explore spots along the bike trail or take a short car ride with your pups, but be sure to stop in and reward them with lots of relaxing patio time to beat the heat at these locations.
