We all hate being cooped up. Some of us hate it more than others.

This week’s bitter-cold temperatures have probably left your dog wondering why his usual walk time has been halved. Maybe your pup is a little neurotic and tends to be a little… disruptive when staring at the same few walls for hours and hours.

Fortunately, Edmonton is a pretty dog-friendly place to be, and there are a whole ton of shops that’ll let you bring your pup in while you browse. Here are some great pet-friendly places to check out that will keep those paws warm:
