A dog's day out in Nillumbik is sure to have tails wagging. Let us be your guide 🐾 Summer time walkies are a must at Eltham's Lower Park & Griffith Park. Situated right by the Yarra River, they're also the perfect place for your pooch to cool off. Whining & dining? blackvicecoffee in Hurstbridge is a no-brainer for your caffeine fix. The pizza at pantonhillwinery is so good that your pups might try to steal it (see the evidence in the 3rd image 😮). goldenhillsbrewery has doggie treats at the door, so you know they'll look after you and your appetite too.
