Fall is in the air and there’s pumpkins everywhere! Visit these 8 dog-friendly patches with your furry friends this October.

Let’s face it, nothing quite gets you in the autumnal spirit like heading to a pumpkin patch in your favourite fall sweater.

Even better, the pumpkin patch (which even features a pumpkin house!) is dog-friendly on specific days throughout October on 9th, 10th, 30th and 31st.
