And from 7PM to 11PM on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, dog owners can pull up to the bar for an alcoholic cocktail, while their dog laps up a non-alcoholic "puptail." Some of the options for pets in terms of drinks include the Bloodhound Mary, Barkarita and Howlapaw Sling. The puptails are free of preservatives and they're made with ingredients like raw beets or raw carrots. Alongside plenty of fun and refreshing options, there are also functional ones for pets like the Fish Island Iced Tea, which supports canine gut health with dandelions and burdock. There are also plant-based [Lick & Mix treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dog-treat-mixes), which promise to please pet owners and pets alike. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.6/10 - Popularity: 41% | Activity: 58% | Freshness: 10% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Dog-friendly Bars:** Dog-friendly cocktail bars are becoming more popular, creating a market for bars to cater to dog-owners and their pets. - **Functional Puptails:** Functional puptails containing health-boosting ingredients are gaining popularity, paving the way for the creation of healthier dog drink options. - **Pet-friendly Services:** Pet-friendly services such as daycare, training, and cafes are becoming more common, presenting an opportunity for businesses to cater to pet owners and their pets. ### Where This Applies - **Food and Beverage:** Restaurants and bars in the food and beverage industry can explore the potential of serving pet-friendly options alongside human food and drinks. - **Pet Care:** The pet care industry can explore the possibility of offering more dog-friendly services such as dog-friendly cafes or bars alongside traditional pet care services. - **Hospitality:** The hospitality industry can look into creating pet-friendly hotels and other accommodations for pet owners and their pets. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Dog-Friendly Instant Coffees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barkista.md) - [Canine-Friendly Restaurant Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cafe-villa.md) - [Dog-Friendly Patio Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dog-patio-menu.md) - [Dog-Friendly Patio Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beertown-public-house.md) - [Dog-Friendly Bone Broth Cans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crafty-beasts-brewing-company.md) - [Seasonal Pet-Friendly Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pet-friendly-menu.md) - [Pet-Friendly Victoria Breweries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moon-under-water.md) - [Dog-Friendly Tasting Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dogue.md) - [Pet-and-Owner Salons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/short-bark-and-sides.md)
