Dog Friendly Dining in Cape May

Posted on by

Even though I went camping during my weekend adventure, doesn’t mean I couldn’t enjoy some fine dining too!

So one rainy morning my pal Shilah and I hit up the Blue Pig Tavern for some breakfast.

I wore my rain gear just in case, but we were able to sit outside under a covered pavilion which kept us nice and dry.

Shilah was quite excited because this was her first outdoor dining experience!

Don’t worry though, I showed her just what to do at a fine dining establishment, because a well behaved dog also gets extra treats!

Shilah at least had the “cute begging for food face” down pat by the end of our breakfast…..she’s a quick study!

Next time we might have to check out the Rusty Nail, as we hear they even have a doggie menu complete with doggie beer! What fun!

Stay tuned tomorrow as I share more of my adventures in Cape May at the Beach!Ammo the Dachshund

Dog Friendly Camping in Cape May

Posted on by

Over the weekend I went on a mini 3-day vacation to Cape May, New Jersey. While the main purpose of the trip was to soak up some sun at the beach (which I will get to in another post), I also got to log some camping hours – which is one of my favorite things to do!

My friend Shilah the Husky decided to come on this trip with me too – and it was to be her very first camping trip.

Shilah and I waited patiently for the cars to be packed, and oversaw that everything necessary made it into our caravan (squeaky toys, dog food, and cookies of course).

Then we loaded up the tightly packed car and made the 2 1/2 hour trip to Cape May, New Jersey.

We arrived at our dog friendly campsite at Seashore Campsites in Cape May. This campground was a bit more modernized than where I’m used to camping, with activity centers, snack shops, pools and swimming lakes (all of which do not allow dogs to enter), but I did spot lots of other friendly dog campers.

I even met this friendly dachshund named Theo!

Most of the campsites were under lots of wooded trees, which made it quite comfortable to camp even in the summer, although the camping areas were pretty tightly packed – making it a little difficult to find open areas for a dog to do his business.

I prefer a little more of a rustic camping experience personally, but I suppose to my fellow 2 legged campers it was nice to have warm showers nearby. (They can’t rough it like I can!)

My pal Shilah took to camping quite well considering this was her first experience. I even let her borrow my x-pen to make her trip a little more comfortable.

Shilah and I took our camp dog duties very seriously, and we guarded the area from any possible intruders. Ok well maybe guarding isn’t the right word when all we did was stare at passerby’s and wag our tails – but it was fun nonetheless!

One of my favorite things about camping is getting to sleep in a tent with my family. Something about being in nature is just so relaxing to me.

It also helps if you bring a comfy sleeping bag incase it gets chilly at night!

When it came time to head home from our weekend adventure I was sad to go – but I know I’ll be putting up my tent again soon, because this dog loves a good camping trip!

Tomorrow I’ll be back to share some more of the fun I had in Cape May! Ammo the Dachshund
