• Dogs can dine with their owners in many restaurants all across Orange County.dog image by Ramona smiers from Fotolia.com
  
  Dog owners often find themselves in situations where they can't bring their four-legged companion with them to dinner because a certain restaurant doesn't have an animal-friendly policy. Fortunately, many restaurant owners are starting to realize that costumers consider their pets as family, and consequently dogs are welcome in more and more restaurants, including some in Orange County, California. Restaurant policies vary, but typically restaurants welcome leashed dogs in outdoor seating areas and some even offer bowls of water, doggie menus or dog treats.
