Great Fido Friendly Outdoor Space!
La Presa Mexican Restaurant Bar & GrillFido will need to walk around the building to access. Larger outdoor space than one might think. While we were there, they went above and beyond opening and positioning their large patio umbrellas to ensure we were comfortable. Lots of staff commented positively on our dog, and she even got to meet one of the owners. They can make both gringo and non-gringo food, so this should be a hit for everyone!

Nice, Clean Place
Hyatt Place LouisvilleVery nice and clean. No staff bothered to even acknowledge our dogs which was a bit odd. To each their own.

Good Start
From Wags to Fishes Pet ParadeThis year (2022) is the very first year for this event. Despite the heat, they had a good turnout. I hope next year is even bigger and better! Thanks for helping rescues!

Loved it!
Jockamo Upper Crust PizzaStaff was kind and attentive to us as well as our dog. They even offered to get her a bowl of water. A great place with a TON of different pizza toppings. Something for everyone.

Small Town Feel
Speck's Pet SuppliesThis store prides itself on making customers happy. We love going here!

Great Place!
Black Sheep GiftsSo many neat things to look at. A great place to find a perfect gift for a human or a pooch. So glad that this was on BringFido!

High Quality!
PetPeopleWhen my mother asks where she can purchase treats for our dogs that will meet our approval, I do not hesitate to recommend PetPeople. Finally a company that has cut out all of the unhealthy garbage that is found in most other pet supply stores!

Nice Store
Pet Supplies PlusThe staff have always been kind. Yes, it’s a chain. Like many other places, they have had recent staffing issues. Please practice patience.

Cute Shop
From Wags To FishesThis pet boutique is small but mighty. They have utilized every square inch with quality pet products.

Love it!
DOGtropolisIf this place can put up with our crazy crew, they can likely do just about anything. Top notch care and friendly staff.

Great Breakfast Option
Ricky's Pancake HousePerhaps the only pancake house/breakfast joint in town that has dog-friendly outdoor seating. Good food. Good service.

Noooooooo!!!!
Red Roof Inn Louisville EastI know this place is inexpensive and dog friendly, BUT do you really want your dog to have to compete with roaches for their food? Also, we stayed in the handicapped tub room, and there is no way to put the bench up in order to get in the tub. They added more grab bars after the bench was installed, and they are in the way of the hook and the bench. Worst. Motel. Ever.

Loved it!
2nd Street CafeEat where the locals eat. This place was way less crazy than the places on the water. The staff loved our dog, and she even got free sausage! There are also no steps involved to get into either in their outdoor seating area or inside the restaurant which made it perfect for us.


Nice, Clean Location
Tractor Supply Co.This location is almost perfect. It would be so helpful if they had a dog wash like many of their other stores. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable.

Lovely
Cavallo Farm & MarketBeautiful place. Very dog-friendly outdoor seating. Some good dog-free shopping and yummy human sweets inside.

Very Cool Place!
Florida Cracker Monkey BarSpend the evening with your dog enjoying views of monkey island (daytime), waterfront views, and listening to music. They serve pizza (not gourmet, but still tasty), and have lots of drink options.

Nice Folks
Angelo's PizzeriaWe were immediately given a bowl of water for our dog before we were tended to which we thought was awesome. Several employees, including the manager, came to meet and love on our dog. Great experience.

Not So Much
Red Roof Inn ForsythRoom was dirty, especially the floor. Our door didn’t open all the way. Pro tip: Make sure you close the door BEFORE using the commode. Yikers!

Top Notch
Lodge Factory StoreThey have top notch quality merchandise sold here as well as having top notch dog-loving employees employed here. They have a dog walk area complete with complimentary poop bags. 5 Bones!

Fun, Fenced Fido Fun!
Citrus County Dog ParkWe love this option of exercise for our dog. However, it is LONG walk back to the dog park, and the small dog side is maybe about an eighth of the size of the large dog side.

Big for a Truck Stop
Love's Travel StopNice, large park with two separate areas. Water available on both sides.

New, Clean, Nice Dog Aisle
Sportsman's WarehouseThe store just opened. Our dog was treated nicely, and we enjoyed the many offerings that were in the dog aisle. Outdoorsy folks will definitely enjoy this place.

The Food is Good But…
Old Mill TavernBe prepared to wait and be flat out ignored. This was the case both before and during the pandemic. We are pretty patient people, especially in these times, but there is NO excuse for rudeness. They allow dogs, but keep in mind that they only have concrete or gravel, so bring an extra cushion for fido. I gave them the second star because their food is actually awesome. Good luck!

She loves your good dogs!
Mama's HouseVery creative with making older furniture fun again! Expect your pup to get some pets.

Cute Store Stocked with Biscuits!
Baggage & BoutiqueYour dog will not only get pets, but there is also usually a biscuit behind the counter.

Nice but gets muddy
Love's Travel StopDouble gate entryway is always a plus. Not huge, but a great size for fido to stretch their legs. Gets pretty muddy after rain, and there are areas of grass missing that add to the muddy mess.

Very Kind Staff
Cox's Plant FarmWe visited Cox’s with our dog. We had not been there in several years, so we had lots of questions. The younger staff members were so patient and helpful. At no point did they ever make us feel like we were a bother. This place is huge, so plan accordingly.



Awesome!
Farm House CafeGreat food. The staff loves dogs and are very accommodating. Dogs even have their own menu!

Love it!
Brown Bike Eatery And DrinkeryTheir menu might not be the biggest, but the staff have huge hearts for the pups who dine here with their owners.

A Treasure of a Store!
Orchard Country StoreThis store has tons of animal food and accessories. It also has some clever and amazing decor items for your home and kitchen gadgets. It seems to pretty much have everything. A great place to support a local business.

Great Place to Visit!
Lehman'sThe staff at Lehman’s are great with the dogs. It’s a nice place to have a walk around to gander at all of the pretties. I do miss the huge room with all of the beautiful lamps. The store seems so much more fragmented that it did years ago.

Excellent!
Park Street PizzaThe pizza was delicious, and they have a nice amount of outdoor seating so that fido can join you.

Fun Times!
Hendricks County International FestivalWe attended this festival two years ago (it was canceled last year). It was amazing to see people from different lands all come together and celebrate. Highly

Excellent!
Paws & Claws & CoThis independent pet shop has just about anything you need. There were aquariums, birds, and lots of supplies for dogs and cats. Our dog especially appreciated that they put the raw bar right by the front door. She loves her moo sticks.


Excellent !
Olympia Candy KitchenThey also have a breakfast and lunch menu (sandwiches and the like) and chocolate candy. We enjoyed our chocolate Cokes while our pup her plain burger patty (they offer scrambled eggs). Neat place. Lunch was affordable. The candy pricy.

One of My Favorite Places
The Island in Pigeon ForgeI loved the vibe here during the early evening hours. We found that most of the shops we wanted to visit were accommodating towards our dog. Just a cool spot in general. FYI: We did not try to eat here.

Great Place!
Mad Dog's Creamery & DonutsWe stopped for a delicious ice cream treat, and we were able to buy a gourmet dog treat for our dog.

This Place has Something the Others Don’t
Gateway to the SmokiesThis campground is nice. It doesn’t have most of the fancy bells and whistles. What it does have is access to a stoplight! If you’ve ever camped in this area during tourist season, you know how wonderful the stoplights are down here.

Love it!
Johnson's BBQ ShackGreat outdoor seating area that is just perfect for when fido tags along. Great food too!

Neat Place!
Linton's Enchanted GardensI am NOT a plant person - at all, but there was enough cute decor and other items throughout that kept my interest. The employees that we encountered were mostly all dog lovers. Cool spot.

Excellent & Unique
The Salt and Pepper Shaker MuseumThe people working there loved our dog. it was a nice, relaxing, air conditioned place away from the Main Street madness.

Really neat store
Smokey Mountain Knife WorksI’m not much into knives (I’m a klutz), but this store has so much more. Our dog was treated like the princess she is, and hubby got to look at a store that kept his interest.

Enjoyable
Howard's Flea MarketUnlike some other local flea markets, we have found that Howard’s has been much more successful in having full booths. There are typically lots of folks there with their dogs. A nice place to shop and walk around.

Winner every time!
Bone Appetit BakeryMy dog loves to sniff along and pick out her favorite treats from the many flavors that are offered. They have really fancy treats in the case.
Loved it!
RV Motorhome Hall of Fame and MuseumPlease be respectful and responsible so that others who want to bring their dog will be able to do so.

Excellent!
Gather A'Round BBQExcellent food. Excellent staff. Excellent outdoor space for your dog. Excellent all around.

Nice place for a cool treat
Brain ChillzzYour pup is welcomed to join you in their outdoor seating area. They also have pup cups. Perfect place on a hot day.

Awesome
PetsenseWe were camping nearby and needed to pick up some things for our dogs. The place was well-stocked, had friendly staff, as well as a fun photo backdrop complete with props.

Always Amazingly Dog-Friendly!
Cabela'sOur dog always gets lots of pets plus it seems that most of the staff tends carry treats around. Nice, clean store with friendly staff.

Way cool store!
OrvisWhile we were at Clay Terrace Mall today, we decided to check out the Orvis store. How have we not been here sooner?!? Y’all, most of the entire center of the store is dedicated to us dogs. We appreciate you letting our entire family (especially me!) enjoy your store. Spot on, @bringfido !

Good grub and…
Dawson's on MainNice, shady tables. All of the employees that we encountered interacted with @squeakpippa

Nice little spot
Mooresville Tropical SnowNot only does this place offer traditional snow cones/shaved ice, but they also have some ice cream concoctions as well. When you order a pup cup, you get the choice of ice cream, whipped cream, or shaved ice. Excellent cool treats!

What a cool space!
Pins Mechanical Co.This place has duckpin bowling, tons of pinball machines, and a few other games. There is even an outdoor/rooftop bar. They loved on our dog everywhere we explored. Highly recommend!

Great Idea!
Dog Park at Clay TerraceClay Terrace not only has a top-notch pet store that you can take Fido to, but they have a free dog park as well. When we have been, it has been well-maintained. It’s also large enough that it doesn’t feel crowded or stuffy.

Worth the Cost!
Nashville Express Train ToursYou gain knowledge and insight about the area while taking a break from walking. plus they love dogs! If that doesn’t convince you, they also hand out coupons for local restaurants and attractions.

Top Notch Ice Cream!
The Chocolate MooseThere are options here for nearly everyone’s dietary needs. Always delicious ice cream. Always friendly staff. I do wish they had more outdoor seating, but they are probably limited due to their lot size.

Attentive to Humans and Fido
The Nashville HouseThey immediately offered our girl a bowl of fresh water. We enjoyed the food. A nice place to people watch and listen to live music.

Big and Clean!
Herry's Thrift & Gift ShoppeHelpful staff that will love on your dog too! Great selection of finds.

Huge & Clean!
Herry's Thrift & Gift ShoppeOne of the area’s nicest and cleanest thrift stores. Plus they let you bring your dog! Bonus!

Great Coffee and Fresh Water for Fido!
Cattle Dog Coffee RoastersThe employees here are really friendly. They brought out a bowl of fresh water for our dog. How do I know it was fresh? Our dog refuses to drink after other dogs. oh, and my frozen coffee concoction was delicious! Would return in a heartbeat!

Excellent food, service, and atmosphere!
Tarpon Turtle Grill & MarinaWe had an excellent experience here with @squeakpippa The only thing that was odd was how tall and awkwardly the tiki booths were. I am obviously disabled, and it was difficult even for the three able-bodied people to manipulate themselves into those booths. Sometimes functionality should trump aesthetics. Great view though!

Wonderful All Around!
City Dogs GroceryOur dog (@squeakpippa) absolutely LOVES this place. The staff are great with her sassy self. Her favorite thing is to pick out something to enjoy from their raw bar. Great store!
Awesome!
Grand Ole RV ResortThis campground has live music EVERY night! Your dog is welcomed to enjoy it along with you. They also prepare and sell meals every night. We were especially grateful for that as our truck broke down on our trip as soon as we parked and unhitched. We were exhausted. The staff was wonderful, and the campground was well kept.

One Of Our Favorites!
Tried & True AlehouseThey love dogs here. They also have some good grub. Keep in mind that the only time that dogs are allowed is when their outdoor patio is open. If it’s cold outside, then they cannot allow dogs inside the building.

Dog And Disabled Friendly!
AnthropologieThe folks here are super awesome with your dogs. Also, there are ramps to get to different places on the first floor and an elevator to get to the second floor. The cute merchandise is a plus as well.

My FAVORITE Store In Nashville!
Rhonda Kay'sThe folks that work here LOVE dogs, they also sell dog products and dog-themed products along with lots of other nifty stuff to look at. Check this one out!

We LOVED This Pet Store!
Hollywood FeedWe absolutely LOVED this pet store! They don’t sell any of the junk or garbage that you often find in other stores. I especially loved their selection of Kurgo brand products. Nice folks. Nice store.

Outstanding!
Esters Farm Cafe & CateringThe owners of this restaurant love dogs as much as I do, and I love dogs a whole bunch! Food was fantastic (that hash brown casserole, y’all!), and our Pippa got lots of attention. Truly one of the most dog-friendly restaurants I’ve ever come upon.

This Is Awesome!
Dinosaur WorldWe are not human parents, but we were treated no differently here with our dog child. As adults, it was kind of silly, but the photo ops were fantastic! 5 bones for staff friendliness, park cleanliness, and dinosaurs!

The BEST pet Photographer In Indy!
Furtography StudioJust look at her work on her Facebook page. She took what is by far my most favorite picture of my dog, and that was two years ago! Nothing can top her work.

Loved It!
Kilwin's ChocolatesWe enjoyed our ice cream treats while our dog happily enjoyed her cup of real whipped cream.

Cute Place But...
Apple Valley Kitchen CafeThe food here is incredibly overpriced and incredibly blah. They take advantage of the folks who are exploring the national park. I was grateful that they were awesomely dog-friendly, but next time we will pack a picnic.

Perfect Location!
Tom & Earl's Back Alley GrillThis restaurant is in a great location. It’s both located at a perfect stopping point on Gatlinburg’s main drag and also far enough back from the road to feel a little less chaos from the crowds.

They LOVE Your Dog!
The Soft Shirt Place by Simplistic GeekI assure you that your dog will get plenty of attention and pets here. Great people and some really cool shirts! These are the unique souvenir shirts you’ve been looking for!

Great Variety, Great Exercise.
Indiana Premium OutletsWe always enjoy being able to take our dog with us. Many of the stores are not dog-friendly, but the outdoor area is. it made for a nice family walk with some shopping thrown in.

We Loved It!
Beasley's OrchardWe came upon Beasley's Orchard in Danville, Indiana. They informed us that they were dog-friendly, so our girl got some good pets from folks. This place is so cute! Baked goods, fresh produce, jams & jellies, cute items for your kitchen, and so much more!

The Best!
Lowe's Home ImprovementLowe’s, as a chain, is big on being dog-friendly. This location is no different. Don’t be surprised if the employees come over to give pets and hand out treats.

A MUST Attend For Dog Lovers!
Annual Bow Wow BashThis is the BEST annual pet event in the Indianapolis area. There is so much to see and do. I cannot recommend this enough!


Great Place For Ice Cream With Fido
Mayberry Malt & Coffee ShoppeBecause of everyone wearing masks and the machinery running inside the ice cream shop, it was a little on the confusing side for both parties. But, we were able to enjoy our ice cream in the shade under their awning. Other folks had the same idea as there were about three other groups of humans and dogs arriving just as we were leaving.

Fabulous!
Chunky Monkey Ice Cream and SweetsEating ice cream has never been better. Enjoy this special treat while Fido enjoys their very own pup cup.

Excellent For People And Pooches!
Brew Link BrewpubNot only do they provide excellent food (those salads, y’all! OMG), but the staff goes out of their way to make sure your dog is welcomed as well. HIGHLY recommend!

Lovely View, But...
Riverfront TaproomI sincerely appreciate places that allow our dogs to go with us. The view of the river was nice. The food...not so much. :-(

The Most Dog-friendly Place In Indy!
Metazoa Brewing Co.A brewery that not only allows dogs both inside and outside of its building, but they also have this freaking awesome dog park as well.

Middle Of the Road
Red Roof Inn Louisville Fair and ExpoAverage, no frills motel. Clean and VERY dog-friendly. After seeing the condition of the exterior of the Days Inn next door, we are so glad we chose Red Roof!

Fabulous Chain, Fabulous Location!
Half Price BooksYet another wonderfully dog-friendly used bookstore in the Indianapolis area. There will be plenty of pets for your pooch.

There’s A Reason We’ve Gone Here For Years...
Saint Francis Pet Hospital CentertonExcellent treatment and service, even during the worst of times.

Fabulous!
Paw Street BakeryMy dog loves going here. They often have adorably themed treats as well as cute pet-friendly events. Highly recommend this small business!

Great Job!
Citrus PawvilleThank you, Citrus Pawville, for taking care of a little problem we tend to have with one of our Boston terriers.
I won't go into too much detail, but it has to do with a certain couple of glands near the rear-end of your dog. They do walk-ins for this! Yay! They were very courteous and professional. My dog is shy, but they made him feel as at ease as possible for that type of procedure. He wasn't thrilled, but the process got done.
I would recommend them for your grooming needs. They seem like they have their stuff together here.

Beware of the grounds!!!!
Westin Chicago North ShoreSUPER pet-friendly. We weren't treated like second-class citizens just because we brought our dogs. The staff was friendly to both us and our dogs, and they even got lots of petting from some of the staff members. There was a beautiful, large grassy section around a nice pond to walk the dogs. It had a fountain. It was all quite tranquil.
The parking lot was just plain gross. We saw everything from broken glass, to a used prophylactic, two KY Jelly boxes, and there was even a needle in-between cracks on their sidewalk. Doesn't anyone ever clean that stuff up? That was beyond scary. Someone could step on that stuff.

They Welcome Everyone!
Half Price Books OutletDogs are included in being welcome here. They are sure to get lots of pettin’s.

The Best!
Half Price BooksThey love your dogs here! The sign on the door states that they welcome friendly, vaccinated pooches. But some books while your dog gets some looks!

Super Duper Dog-Friendly!
Oasis DinerThere is a section outside just for people with dogs. They also bring out biscuits and a bowl of water for your pooch. Love it!
