WHERE TO EAT IN DUBAI WITH YOUR PUP
I
t is that time of year again. And no, I’m not talking about the festive season. It’s also the season where all dog owners go outside to enjoy time with their pooch at dog parks or restaurants.
In the last year we’ve explored a lot of amazing restaurants. Even licensed ones. We did fun activities like Puppy Pilates and even went to dog friendly events. But I think we had our best adventure a few weeks ago while exploring our capital; Abu Dhabi. Cause who could think that you can have an amazing day out with your dog and enjoy a nice BBQ at one of the beautiful islands in Abu Dhabi? Or visit the mangroves or go out for a fishing trip? Our captain Mohamed from Kashta was very kind. He showed us the beautiful mangroves and brought us to a few islands where dogs are allowed. We saw nature at it’s best. Beautiful fish in the clear blue water and many birds. He even brought us to an island where some people have vacation houses and where we could find a gorgeous lake full with geese. But Mohamed also took the time to show us more of the beautiful architecture in the city. There are so many canals where you can go through that give you a totally different view of this beautiful city. My dog Boefje enjoyed this day out a lot. The first part of the trip was on open water to get from Al Raha to the mangroves. 26

I can’t say she was a big fan of those first few minutes. The water was a little rough and she wasn’t used to being on the water. But after that everything was fine and she enjoyed having the wind in her hair. When we came at the first island, she couldn’t wait to get off and roll around in the sand. To be able to walk off the leash, go in the water and run and play around, was a great experience for her which she doesn’t have too often. We chose to spend the day going from island to island but like I said, there are a lot of other options as well. Just ask Mohamed what is possible or tell him what you would like. Why not spend the day on one of the islands with the whole family or a group of friends and enjoy a nice BBQ while you watch your dog(s) play and run around? Or ask Mohamed to bring a kayak so you can enjoy a trip in in the mangroves by yourself. There are so many possibilities. I know one thing for sure and that is that I will be back soon while the weather is so lovely.
