When it comes to family holidays taking our furry best friends along for the ride can feel like mission impossible. Is the accommodation dog-friendly? Will they be allowed in the local cafe?
Dog-friendly locations can be hard to come by, so, to ensure the dog lovers of South Australia don’t have to spend International Dog Day without their BFFs, we have put together the state’s top rated dog-friendly locations thanks to the research from Motorhome Republic.
The team at Motor Home Republic have crunched the numbers and analysed hundreds of locations around South Australia including pubs, cafes, restaurants and beaches to discover, and have created ‘the dog friendly finder’; a map of the state’s favourite and best rated dog-friendly locations.
“Our pets mean the world to us, especially over the past year when they’ve been a comfort and companion for many, and are such an important part of the family,” says Motorhome Republic Chief Marketing Officer, Ali Duncan.
“We’d love to see more people enjoying holidays with the whole family – including their canine companions. Whether you’re on the road and looking for a dog-friendly cafe to spend morning tea, or you’re after a scenic beach break, we hope our ‘Dog-Friendly Finder’ will help Aussies navigate their next whole-family holiday with ease.”
So, no need to worry about expensive kennels or letting your guilty conscience suffer any longer. From bars and pubs to accommodation and caravan parks, you’re sure to find the perfect doggo-friendly pit-stop no matter where you’re travelling. It’s time to plan your next trip with your best furry friend by your side!
