THE DOG HOUSE
According to pet charity PDSA , 27 % of UK adults own a dog , with an estimated number of 10.2 million pet dogs nationwide . Since 2013 , an extra 4.5 million dogs have trotted their way into the lives of Brits and now , a plethora of pet-friendly places across the country have popped up to welcome our four-legged friends through their doors . Once upon a time , not so long ago , it was mainly pubs , and only some at that , that allowed dogs . Today , pooches are celebrated at coffee shops , restaurants , holiday lets and even hotels - proof that we simply hate being away from our canine pals and that no staycation is complete without them . Ever one to be ahead of the trend , Kent is no exception to pet-mania , and with our beautiful beachside walks and serene countryside strolls the county is a paradise for our pooches .
