The professional version of the Cork Hounds application is Ad-Free, and will house future unique enhancements. Cork Hounds is the place to find dog-friendly wineries and vineyards in the United States. We love our dogs and we love wine, and what better way to combine the two than by going to a vineyard with your dog. Not all vineyards are dog-friendly and even those that are have differing policies on where dogs are allowed on the property. We have cataloged all 50 States! You can see our completed list of states and which ones we are currently updating by visiting our website at corkhounds.com. We have taken the time to find out exactly what to expect when you bring your dog to a vineyard so that you can enjoy the experience to its fullest. We’ll let you know if dogs are allowed: outdoors, on the patio/porch, in the tasting room or sometimes all of the above! In addition, we have information on tasting fees and hours of operation. Start planning your dog-friendly vineyard trip today by searching Cork Hounds!
