As summer officially makes its way into this year, I find myself planning more road trips for myself and my pup. This means a big portion of the planning for my destinations will revolve around my dog, Phebes. Thus making a pet-friendly city like Dublin the perfect place for us to stop for the weekend. I decided to stay near Historic Dublin, the center of the city, also home to many shops, restaurants, parks, cafes, a beautiful Saturday market, and to my absolute delight, stunning waterfalls that can be accessed via easy-to-walk trails. While not all of these places are pet friendly, I created a pawsome Phebes-approved itinerary that you can follow for your next pup getaway.
