Dogs in pubs?

[JamesG]

What do you think? Good idea? Bad idea? Which pubs are dog friendly? General thought?

[david_carnell]

Good idea as long as they are well behaved. Much like children. Seen but not heard.

Gowlett and Bishop are deffo dog friendly. As would anywhere with garden (although perhaps not for you in winter).

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Good. Very good.

The Clockhouse has always been dog friendly. Is your dog pub friendly?

[legalbeagle]

The Dog in the village is dog friendly!

[Huguenot]

Jimbo, you have a dog?

[JamesG]

Hello mate, long time no speak. Yes we have a rescue greyhound and very nice he is too. How are you?

[JamesG]

Dandy is a perfect pub dog (apart from size) as he does very little, is quiet and very friendly if approached.

Crazy in Singers, still irascible. Company still stumbling along but on the up. Marginally ;-)

No dogs in pubs over here.

Just babysat a dogger for two weeks, a little bit lonely since it went home at 11am.

You still a compatriot for AllForNun?

Dogs in pubs are great, so long as they're not wandering round annoying people who may not be too keen.

We had a dog when I was a kid, and he'd walk himself to the CPT, where they'd give him an ashtray full of beer whilst he waited for my dad to turn up. Them was the days.

[mockney piers]

Noooo he's my neighbour now, and have met said dog all about town. Lovely (s)he is too!!

[bonniebird]

Yes to dogs in pubs, I take mine when I go, The Rye probably :)

[ClareC]

Def yes :-) Clockhouse, Rye Hotel, Bishop, Plough and dog all dog friendly :-)

[Michael Palaeologus]

They allow cougars and lynx and panthers and leopards and all sorts in pubs in Sydenham.

Dogs in pubs are fine, until they get pissed.

[RosieH]

Herne also dog-friendly.

More dogs in pubs please - top floor flat means I seek vicarious dog pleasure

love that! Could be mis-construed in a different context, though!

Trust me brum, no kind of Debbie Does Dalmations thing going on here...

[brum]

...not even the sequel, Debbie Does 101 Dalmations? Oh well...

I posted this originally in case anyone else had had a bad experience at the Vale like the one detailed below.

I ordered drinks for 3 people and within minutes of sitting down was asked to leave because of my dog. I said we would leave after we?d finished our drinks as it was totally unreasonable to serve drinks then immediately evict!! The manger said ?no the dog had to leave? so I said we?d leave with a refund which he declined. This turned it to a hideous row until my wife insisted that we leave before it got even more unpleasant.

Sadly the word I want tom write would probably get me banned for the forum but I?m sure you can use your imagination.

BTW my dog is a big greyhound so hardly one the barman could miss!

[taper]

A pub that doesn't allow dogs isn't fit to bear the name. They'll ban smoking next.

Is your greyhound the lovely black and white one that's walked around Peckham Rye?

My feelings about NTV are hardly a secret, let's just say that tale of woe doesn't surprise me one iota. Go the extra 500 yards to Hoopers or EDT, direction dependent, would be my advice.
