In this video, I share the top 5 dog-friendly restaurants in Knoxville, TN. These are not the only dog-friendly restaurants in the area but they are the most popular for dog owners and even go as far as to cater to dogs and dog lovers.  As a dog owner myself, it's important to me to know of businesses that are pet friendly because for me, my dogs are family which I am sure is the same for anyone that owns a pet. Unless you own a pet for business purposes, you more than likely have a high level of love or respect for the animal.  These five Knoxville Restaurants are close to the downtown area and a couple is in West Knoxville, the hottest area for the real estate market in Knox County. The reviews are great and the food is exceptional. The outdoor space is perfect for those of us that want to order a bite to eat and hang out with friends and pets.
