Every dog loves table scraps and being outside on a dog day afternoon. Why not combine the two and bring your dog with you on your next dining venture? We found nine restaurant patios that allow you to bring your furry friend along. Dogs are only allowed on the patio if they are on a leash, so don’t forget to bring it from home the next time you visit one of these dog-friendly restaurants.
