We love getting to a new town and checking out what is offer by having some Gourmet Experiences. The best part is that we have found some ways to include our dogs in the whole experience. Here are our ideas on having a great time with your dog and enjoying some of the finer things in life.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eating Out<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

More and more cafes and restaurants are offering dog friendly seating now. This is great news for us as we can now have those Gourmet Experiences with our dogs! Check for a place that has outdoor seating and access to it with out passing through the main dining area. It is also a good idea to have a shorter lead for use in cafes so your dog can stay nice and close to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cappuccinos & Puppaccinos<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We all want to have a mid-morning or mid-afternoon break from check ing the sights around town. A great way to take that break is to find a coffee shop that also gives your doggie their own menu full of Gourmet Experiences too. Your dog will love tucking into their own Puppaccino or Kangaroo Kake too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Picnics<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Sitting down with a nice view and enjoying some fresh air with your dog can be very relaxing. A basket of nibbles and cheese accompanied by wine, or maybe some nice gourmet sandwiches to fill your picnic basket. In some regions there are even companies who will prepare a picnic hamper of gourmet local produce for you. Don\u2019t forget that your dog may like a snack or two as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wine Tasting<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

While your dog can\u2019t drive you home after you have tasted all of the adult grape juice, they\u2019ll still enjoy the time with you and the pats they\u2019ll get. We\u2019ve found several wineries in most of the big wine regions that welcome dogs in their cellar doors. Some areas like the Hunter Valley have a guide specifically on dog friendly cellar doors. If you\u2019re not sure, it\u2019s easier enough to contact them in advance and ask.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brewery Visits<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The quality of micro-breweries is very high and their popularity is increasing with tourists. A lot of these are also dog friendly which is wonderful news for us who are looking for some Gourmet Experiences to share with our four legged friends. Most have an outdoors area and a \u2018tasting paddle\u2019 available. You will even find a few that have Doggie Beers on offer too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cafes For Dogs<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Puppacino, doggy beer, puppy pie\u2026why not let your dog eat out too sometimes? There are some great places out there that also have a play area. These cafes are where dogs really rule to room and it is all about them!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Markets<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

While you walk the stalls and discover the great local produce, crafts and arts available, your dog can accompany you and gain one of the great Gourmet Experiences at a dog friendly markets. Your dog will love the new smells of the markets and all the petting they will get from all the passers-by. There will be a lot of people coming up to them, so just be sure your dog is comfortable with crowds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pet Boutiques<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Just as you like a treat while on holidays, you can treat your dog or buy them something special! You can get some great baked goods, dehydrated treats and some special smoothies. The best part is that the cook is usually in the shop so you can ask exactly what ingredients are in the food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
