It’s All About Dogs In Kent

If you are taking your dog to the beach in Kent during the Summer season — from May until the end of September — then read our Dog-Friendly Beaches in Kent feature, full of the beaches you can and cannot visit, and other restrictions. Also, see our Beaches & Dogs Safety in Kent for tips. Check out our Dogs & Fireworks – How To Keep Pets Calm feature for those fur babies who don’t like the sounds, sights and smells of fireworks and loud noises. By Wendy Copping
