A Dog Friendly Willamette Valley Wine Tasting Itinerary

Traveling the Willamette Valley with a dog means planning a little differently. Not every winery or stop welcomes pets, and no one wants to spend the day guessing.

Dobbes Family Winery is an easy, comfortable stop for guests exploring Oregon wine with their dogs. We are dog friendly, relaxed in pace, and well suited for flexible itineraries.


Suggested Dog Friendly Willamette Valley Itinerary

This half day outline works well for first time visitors, mixed groups, and anyone traveling with a dog who wants a calm pace.

Start in Dundee
Begin your day at Dobbes Family Winery in the Dundee Hills. Starting here lets both you and your dog settle in comfortably. Walk in tastings are welcome when space allows.

Midday Break for Dogs and People
After tasting, stretch your legs at Dundee Billick Park, a short walk from downtown Dundee and a good spot for dogs to move around before getting back in the car.

Lunch Nearby
For dog friendly dining, stop by Red Hills Market or Trellis, both known for welcoming dogs in outdoor seating areas. If you prefer, outside food is also welcome back at Dobbes.

Optional Afternoon Stops
If you want to keep exploring, continue along Highway 99W or head toward Newberg. Many guests choose to keep the day simple and use Dobbes as either their first or last winery stop.
