Dogs:
Are allowed but the requirements are very high. We have an
extremely well behaved dog - SallyBrown - who is our standard.
She is always on her best behavior, always on a leash and always
calm. Her owner cleans up after her without being asked.
Please don't bring your dog if it can't meet the SallyBrown standards.
