Pet Shopping at its Best
Pets love to shop in Carmel, especially in shops intended "especially for them" (of which there are several). Many other shops carry a wide selection of pet specific merchandise (toys, treats and clothing). Make sure to give your pet his or her allowance before arriving...!

Doggie Treats Everywhere
Carmel's locals....(dogs we mean)... are experts at pointing out which shops and restaurants give doggie treats, and especially those who place bowls of treats just outside their front door. So take a walk down Ocean Avenue. Your pooch will appreciate it...!
A Very Pet Friendly Place
Carmel may just be the most pet-friendly travel destination in the USA. Enjoy white sand beaches, scenery to die for and a "get-away" with your pet in wonderland.
Carmel Beach is the only leash-free beach in the county.
