    [b]Doggy Walking Tours[/b]
    Here, there is a special Doggy Walking Tour, with a spectacular finish at a limited time Neon Dog Park by acclaimed Melbourne artist, Carla O'Brien.

    This art installation is a night-time display of all things dogs. Join in to explore the history of Williamstown with your fur babies. After this, you (and not fur babies) can partake of a glass of sparkling wine. Have a piece of cake with it and then wander through the exhibition on the Williamstown foreshore.

    This is the pawfect way to experience this township which is steeped in Victorian history. You will hear about the ghosts who still meander through the pubs, the hulks who housed the prisoners and the rich, colourful maritime past. The walk is an easy one and is 5 kms in total - fur babies will love you even more for this!



    It will be on Friday 29th June, Sunday 1st, and Thursday 5th July, from 4.00 pm to 7.30 pm. The meeting place will be at the western end of the Esplanade Public Park, Williamstown - off-leash dog area. This is near Hatt Reserve and Cole Street.

    Make your bookings before they sell out! Adults are $65 and dogs $5.

    [b]New Hanging Rock Doggy Picnic Adventure [/b]
    Choose one of these Doggy Picnic Adventures where Bella, the dog-friendly bus, will be your chauffeur to escape the city in comfort. Once you arrive, everything has been arranged including your gourmet picnic baskets.

    When you arrive at your destination you will learn the art of dog massage, for which your fur baby will once again, love you even more! This is a day of pampering (no, not for you!) the tired little or large paws. It is a very social day for both the dog and the human.



    But as the June one is already booked out and as they sell out very quickly, make sure you book for one of these dates as soon as possible.

    Cost is $125 for humans and $10 for furry friends and for more information email: [email protected] or phone: 0408 577 140.

    [b]Doggy Winery Tours[/b]
    Bella the dog-friendly bus will chauffeur you to some of the great wine regions of Victoria and I'm sure your dog would just love a winery tour!

    This tour includes a dog massage, (sorry, you miss out yet again) and movie over lunch, from professional Dog Carers. Bring a group of friends, or just come with your best friend, either way, everything will be done for you. Your dog will even be looked after while you taste the wines.

    You will meet in Port Melbourne for some essential "sniff and social time" and get to know each other time, before getting comfortable on Bella. Bella has human and doggy seat belts, so all will be safe and sound. But dogs get the window seat, and you get a gift bag - window licking is allowed.

    The next available tour is in September, so make sure you book now .

    Cost is $200 and $20 for pooch and for more information, here are contact details .
