I had an email from Dave and Cass - who own "Bikes by Dave" up on Young Street in Halifax - they've been dog friendly for the last 14 years!  Yay!  I'd say they were dog friendly back when the term almost didn't exist!  They always have treats and water and lots of loving waiting in the store for any dogs who happen by with their owners - so if you're in the market for a bike or any accessories - that is definitely the place to go check out first and last.  They also have a website at http://bikesbydave.ca/ - where they say they have the best selection of "BMX bikes in Halifax"

A beer store is dog friendly! Garrison Brewery even keeps a water bowl and treats at the ready for dogs who may be visiting.  Now that is service!  I had an email from Peter and his dog Tripper to tell me about the fact - Peter also likes Garrison's use of environmentally friendly beer bottles - it sounds like Garrison Brewery is a VERY good place to buy beer!  I think I may have to start driinking liquor!    

I got a super email from Vanessa who works at the "Little Mysteries" shop down on Barrington Street in Halifax - they're VERY dog friendly - and all animal friendly!  The staff even bring their dogs to work with them!  How nice is that?  They are a book store that also sells wiccan and occult type stuff, but they also sell neat oddity type stuff that makes cool stocking stuffers - you should check them out they also have a website at http://www.littlemysteries.com/ - Barrington Street and the whole downtown area is becoming a really good dog-walking destination because there's a lot of dog-friendly stores down there.   

Up in the north end of the city - Lori and her dog Adah have reported that the Hen House store is also dog friendly.  They sell absolutely awesome antique furniture for not too bad prices and they also sell antique linens and pillows.  They used to have an old labrador retriever when their store was on South Street - but he has since passed on to the great bog of no return.  They also sell super nice leather collars that are not to be missed.  Take a towel with you when you go though - not for your dogs drool - but for yours!    

I had an email from Steve and his dog Milo that Venus Envy on Barrington Street in Halifax is dog-friendly.  He is the web guy for their web site and he said the owner of the store - Shelley - is a tremendous dog lover and keeps treats in the store for visiting canines!  They also have a website at Venusenvy.ca
