    Great Dog-Friendly Museum

    This was an interesting museum and doggies are definitely welcome. We didn’t take ours into the movie or the cellar experience, we just traded off staying with him - but I think he would have been fine. He’s just big and we didn’t want to be in anyone’s way. The 3D videos/posters and the cellar experience were really cool.

    Nice Museum

    This is a very dog friendly indoor museum. The exhibits are well done and interesting perspectives. The movie is very dark and the floor is slippery so we had to pick up our 21 lb Boston as she was scared and slipping all over. Once seated, she enjoyed the show like us!

    Dog Friendly with Treats

    We became aware this museum was dog friendly when we were purchasing tickets and saw the drum a dog treats behind the counter. One note, if you dog is noise sensitive recommend not taking them into the presentation or the basement experience.
