You Can Enjoy Free, Bottomless Wine And Movies With Your Pooch At This Dog-Friendly Theater In Texas
Can’t stand leaving your pooch at home for a few hours to go see a movie? If that sentiment sounds familiar, K9 Cinemas will be your new favorite family outing. Sip on bottomless drinks (bones for the four-legged patrons) and enjoy the show at the world’s first dog-friendly theater.
Hiding in an unassuming Plano shopping center is an indoor destination for dog owners and their pooches to spend quality time together. Complete with drinks, dog treats, and films guaranteed to captivate the eyes of every species who watches them.
Owner Eric and his fur baby, Bear, decided the "no pets allowed" rule at movie theaters needed to be challenged. That's why last year, they teamed up to open the world's first dog-friendly cinema.
Spacious couches allow everyone, no matter how many legs they have, to spread out comfortably. Movie cuddles are an undeniable perk of dog ownership, and now you don't have to save it for home.
Dog-friendly movies are shown on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday evenings, while Saturday is reserved for R-rated flicks geared towards human date night. Both dog treats and regular snacks can be purchased at the concession stand.
Tickets are $15 each, including complimentary bottomless wine or four glasses of whiskey for those over 21 (minors get soft drinks.) Think you and your best furry friend will be visiting more than once a month? If so, consider becoming a member.
If you do sign up, daytime access to the theater will be allowed. Skip the dog park on a hot summer day and instead bring your pooch here to socialize with other well-behaved dogs.
