Mount Dora, a dog friendly town.

Mount Dora may well be the pet friendliest town that I known of. I will give you some wonderful examples of why that conclusion is easy to reach in this post. Your pets will love it here so load them up and bring them to town.

Mount Dora has it's very own dedicated monthly pet-friendly event for the entire family.  Every second Sunday you can discover pet-friendly Mount Dora and WIN fabulous prizes!  PAWS for Mount Dora.


We have our own Mount Dora Dog Park, Mount D.O.R.A. (Dog Off-leash Recreation Area). The City of Mount Dora along with private citizens built this park last year and kicked the whole thing off with the BarkFest. They raised enough money for future expansion of the Dog Park.


Dowtown on the corner of 4th and Donnelly you can find Piglet's Pantry, Mount Dora's only dog bakery. Here you will find an assortment of treats that are sure to please the canine pallet.

We also have Hobscott Pet Supplies which is a pet store specializing in natural foods. The owners are true pet lovers and have over 40 years experience to share in the trade. Be sure and take your pet for a visit.

We have a number of eateries and restaurants in town that allow pets in the outdoor seating areas. Pets are welcome in designated areas at Mt Dora Sushi & Steak, Chew Chew Express, Cecile's French Corner, One Flight Up, The Mount Dora Coffee House, A Taste of Chicago, Pisces Rising on the deck, La Cremerie, Copacobana Cuban Cafe, Fiesta Grande Mexican Grill & PizzAmore. Some of these establishments will provide fresh water and treats for the furry visitors.

Mount Dora has a number of pet friendly lodging establishments which will provide your pet with wonderful "creature" comforts. Some of the more popular pet accommodations include the Tremain Street Cottages in downtown. Tremain Street Cottages has two pet friendly cottages, the ground floor Nantucket Cottage and the two bedroom Garden CottageMount Dora Cottages also provides cozy accommodations for furry visitors in addition to the new Maison En Ville.  For a complete list of pet friendly lodging establishments please visit the Pet Friendly section of the http://www.whattodoinmtdora.com website.

Plan your next trip to Mount Dora with your pet in mind.

Chow Chow,

Absolutely love Mt. Dora for lunch and a bit of shopping and really looking forward to having our Sussex Spaniel "Dino" share a dog friendly Sunday in town.
