Erin Mooney-Smith will serve your dog a puppiccino while you have a drink at the Commercial Hotel in Casino.
Erin has her own dog – an American staffie called G.
When publican Marnie Macdonald posted on Facebook that dogs on leads were welcome in the beer garden of the pub, someone asked about puppiccinos for the pooches.
The dog-friendly pub allows dogs in the beer garden but they must be on a lead.
There’s a water bucket for the dogs, Erin said, and they can have a free puppiccino while customers enjoy their own beverage.
“Don’t be shy, bring your dog in,” Erin said.
(PS. Dogs do not normally get seats – this was purely for the photo shoot)
