Brewery & Cafe Manners

Class Description

Have you spotted those dog‑friendly pubs, wineries, and outdoor restaurants but aren’t quite sure if your pup is ready for the outing?

Join our Brewery & Cafe Manners class and take your dog’s basic skills to the next level, helping them become the best dining buddy around.

Teaching your dog solid brewery manners is one of the best ways to keep restaurant patios, taprooms, and tasting rooms dog‑friendly — and to keep your own meals and meet‑ups stress‑free. With a little guidance and practice, your dog can learn to relax, settle, and enjoy the outing right alongside you.
