Wander the city without Wags in tow? Never. Luckily, Boston abounds with boutiques, restaurants, and natural attractions that give your best friend her proper doggie due.

Surprising but true: The most chichi shopping spot in town is canine compatible. Let leashed Lulu browse a choice selection of high-end collars, leads, and canine bath products while you keep an eye peeled for Bowie and Callie, owner Debi Greenberg’s rescues.

Louis, 60 Northern Avenue, Fan Pier (617-262-6100 or louisboston.com).

SoWa Vintage Market, 460c Harrison Avenue, SoWa (sowavintagemarket.com).

After exhausting Porkchop at Peters Park, dash across the street for a rosé or Belgian ale at the dog-friendly wine shop. (DailyCandy Boston’s resident pup has made many an appearance.)

Rare is the morning you don’t see several hounds hitched outside this neighborhood favorite. While your buddy laps from the water bowl, grab a free biscuit with your latte and smile at the oversize photos of Madison, Harriet, Simon, and Dexter, owner Richard Gordon’s pups.
