We left there and were getting a little hungry. We headed toward Dahlonega, and I was trying to search some dog friendly places.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

I was excited to find that Shenanigan’s on the square was dog friendly on their outside patio.\u00a0<\/p>

This<\/strong> <\/span><\/a>dress, from Amazon, just delivered last night. I didn’t have a chance to press it, but I wanted to show it to you because it’s so stylish! And it has pockets. It’s lined and has smocking along the back, so it’s very comfortable. And the straps are adjustable. I ordered the Striped White Khaki, but it comes in many different colors and prints.\u00a0<\/p>
