Sites where you can take dogs into pubs

If you are staying at the caravan club site at Castleton in the Peak District (Losehill) you can take dogs into The George in Castleton.
The only time a dog should be taken into a pub is if the animal is a Guide Dog for the Blind/Deaf. All other times an animal should not be taken into a place where the sale and consumption of drink and/or food is being served. If a person wishes to visit a pub accompanied by their pet they should be prepared to sit outside with the smoking fraternity and not pollute the atmosphere within the building.
I am not anti dog as I have owned three animals over the years and my daughter has a Shelti for which we often doggy sit. However there is a time and place for fairness and an animal in a place serving food/drink is not in my opinion acceptable.

Although we are dog owners, we don't normally take our dog into a pub. However, when looking around at some pub frequenters I would rather share my table with a dog anyday!
I can't see the problem with well mannered dogs, and why anybody would be "polluting the atmosphere" is puzzling!! OK there is a certain aroma that comes from all dogs, but I would rather have that, than sitting next to somebody who stinks of BO! :O(

Personally I would rather see a well behaved dog in a pub, provided it's not the dining area, than a well behaved kid. They will have plenty of time later in life to find out if they want to socialise in pubs without being fed scratchings, crisps, pop etc. in a smokey environment with cussing fighting adults. Oops, just re-read this, I meant to say children, not kids, sorry Colin me old mate ;O)
p.s. I should have said that even in the dining area I would have no problem if the dog was laid down and not bothering people as they were eating. I've never taken mine in a pub because they are people dogs (Miniature Schnauzers) and love fuss, always having the need to be in contact with people. The temptation for them to be made a fuss of would be to great and no matter what I said they would go deaf. Selective hearing I think it's called.
You will find most village pubs in the North, Derbyshire and Yorkshire have dogs. Our fav is the Wheatsheaf at Ingleton. Fantastic home cooked food all fresh, no frozen chips here.
Dave I do have two children, the eldest is 37 and the youngest is 26. They are both well behaved and do not go around the pub screaming and shouting - generally making a nuisance - they are both well behaved. My two grandchildren - although boistrous at home are very shy and quiet when they are taken out and the main problem when in a dining area of a pub is being able to hear them talk regarding what they would like to eat.
In the majority of pubs around here (Devon) lots of the landlords have their own dogs in the pubs anyway.
I personally dont have a problem with it at all, we have a dog but have never taken her into a pub because of what other people would think (and she'd also be begging for pork scratchings
)

)We have never experienced any problems taking our little dog into any pub (having asked the landlord/landlady first). She is very well behaved and usually lays under my seat. The only time she is a problem is when another customer approaches her - then she wants to lick them to death! I might add that we only take her in if it is throwing it down with rain and/or too warm to leave her in the car. She didn't even make a fuss last year when visiting a pub with a residential cat lurking around the bar area.

Ah thats the ones, dont take my dog to the pub as she does'nt drink :0)
I have to agree with Lord B on this one, I would rather have a muddy smelly sheepdog in a pub than a screaming child which cannot for some reason be controlled by its parent.

I would never dream of taking my dog into a restaurant where food was served, I am a responsible dog lover and think that if we go on holiday the dog should have a holiday too, Colin if you are so opposed to dogs in pubs you also have a choice, check out the websites that have been supplied and avoid them, a big thankyou to all of you who have responded and offered constructive suggestions
We have taken dogs into lake district pubs where working (farm) dogs normally went with their owners for an end of day pint - VERY end of day in the summer with the lighter nights - just so long as they sat quietly, seen and not heard. One such place even had a stock of water bowls behind the bar if your dog did not have it's own. The same pub had a policy of barring humans who got too raucous after over indulging. It was very popular with holiday makers - dog owners or not.
Oh Colin, your poor dogs, do you really put your families dear little Sheltie out side when you eat & drink?
In what way can a pet dog cause pollution that a guide dog can't? after all dogs are dogs, love them or hate them.
Seriously though, just stick to the pubs that don't welcome dogs & you won't have to mix with us folk, there are plenty of both.
Most country pubs accept well behaved dogs, they have too as oftern the majority of customers have them.
We have travelled with dogs for 30 years, when we had large ones we usually left them in the car as they were safe there, now we have only one small dog we won't risk him being let in the car, as dog theft is on the rise.

Hi Hilary, try Bainland Country Park, Woodall Spa, Lincolnshire (Best of British) They will actually let you take a well behaved dog into the restaurant area, we did, and so did quite a few other people. It was Easter 2005 so it was quite busy all of the time and we sat at a table on the edge of the restaurant and our dog Pepe ordered some giant prawns as I recall !! It all seemed to work quite well, with no problems caused by any dogs at any of the times we visited.Pepe did get a bit disgruntled when they wouldn't allow him access to the indoor pool though, apparantly it was a bit full !!!
There you go best wishes Peter. (www.bainland.co.uk)

We stayed 10 days last summer at the CC site in Garlieston (Dumfries & Galloway) and ate at the local pub several times (sorry can't remember the name but it's the only one) and there were dogs there each time. The barmaid even produced a box of dog biscuits for "regulars". Since March last year there is no smoking in pubs in Scotland so there is a really clean atmosphere in them now.
Try Lidalia in Newcastleton,Scottish Borders. Only 20 miles of M6 and 13 miles from Kielder Water. Great area for dogs, both local hotel and pub allow dogs as does the Bank and Hardware store.
Great forest and riverside walks. If you like peace and quiet this is the place to be.
