"Blue Dog is one of our favorite places to drink in The Valley, and its dog-friendly status only adds to that fact. This Sherman Oaks staple is a great place to spend a Saturday afternoon watching a game with your dog, your neighbors, and your neighbors’ dogs. There’s a big front patio with water bowls, fantastic burgers (including one specifically for dogs), excellent craft beer, and photos of random pooches on nearly every wall. When your team blows another 4th quarter lead in the playoffs, trust us, you’re going to want to stare at a framed photo of a winking Pomeranian for a little bit." - brant cox
