Paws Welcome Here

About Us

Paws Welcome Here is a simple guide to places where dogs are genuinely welcome.

We list dog-friendly cafés, shops, restaurants, accommodation and more — making it easy for people to take their dogs with them instead of leaving them behind.

Starting in North Down, Ards and Belfast, our free guide is available in local businesses and will expand to new areas over time.

You will also find infirmation on local and national Pet Rescue Centres, and emergency contact information

ETA launch Summer 2026

Your printed guide will be available from Tourist Offices, Paw Friendly business, cafes and shops, which you can find on our dog friendly website and available for download.
