It’s finally getting warmer out and you know what that means. Patio season. This long-awaited season is slowly creeping up on us and before you know it, we will be basking in the sun, drinking our favourite beer, and hanging out with friends on some awesome local patios. But you shouldn’t be the only one enjoying it. Your fur baby needs to be part of the fun, too. That’s why we came up with a list of pet-friendly patios in Alberta that are perfect for you and your dog to hit up this summer. The long term spring forecast was announced and while most of the nation will be wet, warmer temperatures are in the forecast for Alberta. This means that you can finally start heading out and hitting up all those restaurants and brewery patios that you've been missing all winter. Luckily for you, and your pup, there are some awesome spots around Alberta that cater to both you and your dog. Altogether, we came up with a list of the eight best patios for you and your pooch. From downtown restaurants to amazing micro-breweries, this list has it all. Just be sure that you and your dog are well behaved. These patios are for everyone to enjoy and being friendly is a must. Don’t forget to bring some water for your little buddy. It can get hot sitting out there in the sun. Cold Garden Beverage Company Address: 1100 11 St. S.E., Calgary, AB Why You Need To Go: This microbrewery is just 10 minutes away from the Calgary Tower. This means that you and the pooch will have the best spot in all of downtown to people watch, have a beer, and maybe even a bite to eat. Dogs are allowed both inside and outside at any time.
