April 1st sees the opening of Gillingham’s newest go-to venue, especially designed to appeal to everyone who loves coffee and dogs – Coffee & Canines is designed to be the area’s premier go-to dog-friendly venue.”

“I’ve been planning to open Coffee & Canines for some time,” says Jennifer McDouall, PACT, ABTC. “I was a veterinary nurse before deciding to gain my professional dog training qualifications and I started my successful Positive Canine Training business for the public and charitable organisations five years ago.

“I want dog owners to feel free to enjoy a coffee and seek advice if they need it, or just to chill and use our super-fast WiFi,” says Jennifer. “But a lot of people who love dogs can’t own them due to health or age issues, or living in the wrong type of accommodation, and they are very welcome too!”
