Bring the Dog ! was first published July 18th 2003
We (Judy and Neil Cameron-Rollo) were prompted to start this site by an incident in June 2003.
While travelling back from Scotland with our dog Sasha we decided to stop at a small market town near Hadrian’s Wall for lunch. As it was a hot day we did not want to leave her in the car. We were tired, hungry and thirsty.
We tried three different pubs (one of which had a beer garden) and were turned away at each because we had the dog with us. Needless to say we will not be going back (unless of course one of you can recommend somewhere).
Since then we have looked at the various printed guides to travelling with a dog and found them all to be limited in one way or another.
With this in mind we have decided to start this web site. We think this site will be different because:
- All the entries in the Reviewed and Recommended list are there because they have been recommended / reviewed by a fellow dog owner.
- All nominated establishments will be entitled to a free entry (We hope eventually to finance the running of the site by getting sponsorship and selling enhanced entries and other services to listed establishments. We are prepared to carry the costs for the time being)
- It will cover the entire country (We would be very pleased to get nominations for Eire as well).
- We can list as many properties as you nominate
- It will be more current than any printed guide could hope to be
- This site is run by a dog and its owners for dogs and their owners
So let us know about any establishment where you and your dog have been made to feel welcome.
We would also welcome pictures of your dog (.jpg files only), we will be offering a prize each year for the best photo
