hm.. up in the valley, there aren't a ton of dog-friendly places. About 2 or 3 dog cafes that I know of, and most of the stores dont allow dogs. it not very hip up here. However, Gonzy used to *always* hang out at Dimple Records with us, because my friend Danny works there and people were amused by the mohawk dog. In bay area, and la and san diego, I know there are tons of doggy places... its fun!!
