My (awesome) friend June found a cafe in Seoul that is run by dog lovers. They love dogs so much, they have adopted around 15 dogs, and let the dogs run around in their cafe, enjoying snuggles and occasional treats from the customers.
No pugs though. :(
June and I are both very much dog (well, animal) lovers.
I was happy they had this independent little boston terrier. He was my pug-stand in.
We had to wait maybe 15 minutes or so for a table, as it was Saturday night and the place was packed with Korean needing their dog fix.
I think clearly belonged to this dog named Coco.
She (he?) just took over our table pretty much the whole time.
The menu consisted of coffees, teas, sodas, milk shakes, and a few beers.
Coco made it hard to talk to June sometimes.
If you bought a bag of the dog treats they sold, you better open the package quickly.
People got dog-mobbed often. Actually, I think that person on the far right of the pic above is the designated Body Guard to the dogs. She broke up dogs before fights could occur.
They had kitchen staff, waiters, greeters and a few people soley in charge of cleaning on the inevitable potty accidents. They would swoop in with their paper towels and cleaning spray and clean up pee puddles practically before the dog was done with his business.
I never even saw any of the "other kind" of business.
This was really such a fun place to visit in Korea.
