Knaresborough café holds first dog tea party
A Knaresborough café has played host to its first dog tea party, with both canines and owners getting sweet treats.
Scarlett’s tea room welcomed 25 white and fluffy Coton de Tulears.
The dogs went for a walk around the town with their owners before heading to the tea room to enjoy cake for humans and treats and chews for the dogs.
Sarah Williams, who runs Scarlett’s, called the event “hugely fun.”

The Coton de Tulear is a small dog which originates from Madagascar.
They are known to be affectionate and playful, and are closely related to the Bichon Frise and Maltese breeds.
The dog owners who came to Knaresborough on Sunday are members of a Facebook group that occasionally meets up to walk their dogs together.
Ms Williams heard about the group through Hayley Goddard, who also works at the café, and said “why don’t you come to Knaresborough.”

Thankfully, she added, all the dogs were well behaved.
