HOW TO CREATE A DOG-FRIENDLY HOLIDAY PROPERTY

With the staycation likely to be the holiday of choice and 10 million dogs in the UK, demand for dog-friendly holidays is high this year. If you offer accommodation, maybe you already welcome dogs, or maybe it’s simply never occurred to you until now. Dog-friendly holiday company PetsPyjamas shares four tips to help you achieve a five-paw rating: • Provide doggy essentials such as a bed and bowl. A towel is also handy for use after wet or muddy walks. • If you offer a welcome gift to guests, don’t forget a pack of treats for dogs. • Ensure outdoor spaces are secure, for peace of mind for owners while their pet potters off-lead.

• Share local dog-friendly knowledge in information packs such as dog walks, pubs, cafés, pet shops, etc.
