Dining Out With Your Dog: Simple Etiquette

• Keep the leash on and short. Even in a garden, it keeps your dog by your table and off other diners’ paths.
• Bring diapers. Malls often require them, and they put staff at ease.
• Bring water and a bowl. Some places offer one, but don’t count on it in Manila heat.
• Choose a quieter table. A corner or the edge of the patio means fewer passers-by, and fewer worried looks from other diners.
• Go off-peak first. A quiet weekday visit is an easier first outing than a packed Sunday brunch.
• Keep your dog off chairs and tables, and clean up any accidents straight away.
• Leave early if your dog is unsettled. There is always next time.
