    They love fur babies!

    Full service winery! Dogs are welcome inside on leash, and off leash in a fenced dog park! They have dog treats, dog bowls, and all the staff love dogs! Not to mention, the wine is so great for parents too!

    5-Bones

    There are a lot of vineyards in the area, but few that allow dogs inside and have an off-leash fenced dog park. For vineyards/wineries, this place gets 5-bones.

    Pet lovers paradise

    If you are like me and love wine and want to take your pup everywhere, this place is for you. 8 chains is pet friendly everywhere (inside and out), plus they have an off leash area where the pups can run. The wine is delicious (highly recommend the cross country blend) and the staff is super friendly. The owner/winemaker is wonderful and I cannot recommend his wine enough!
