tlc Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 We took our lot to Dinner plain last year (near Mt Hotham) they had a ball, we went in september the last day of the snow season but there was still plenty of snow as we had a cold snap at the time. Not sure how you would go taking them there in peak season as there is usually lots of people. Funny you posted this as I was just watching video of my lot in the snow last night. They just loved it so much which suprised me as I thought they would hate it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Haven't been there myself as yet. Would like to go there one day, though, so that Pepper can experience some snow, too.

nynka Posted August 21, 2010 Author Share Posted August 21, 2010 Are there any near Buller? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fevah Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Are there any near Buller? From what I understand you can't take your dogs to Buller and if you live there you have to get a permit for a dog and you have to have lived there for a number of years before even being allowed a permit.

nynka Posted August 26, 2010 Author Share Posted August 26, 2010 Yes, that is the trick finding a place where you can take dogs. As soon as you enter a National Park, dogs aren't allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PuddleDuck Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Dinner plain is the only place in Australia where you can take dogs to the snow. I spent a LOT of time researching it last year because I was determined the dogs needed to see the snow :D Its totally awesome - we just got back from 10 days down there with the pooches and had an absolute blast. Its the second year we've been, and we'll be going back next year! Its not crowded and doesn't have that "trendy ski resort" vibe, more like a country town. Heaps of walkies, but you do have to be carefully not to stray into the national park - they have fox baits in there usually. Photos from our trip are here - photos from this year and last year. The dogs LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE it, have a weird fetish for eating snow, and honestly think its just the single greatest thing in the entire universe. If you get the chance - well worth it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poochiemama Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 That sounds awesome. How far is Dinner Plain from Melbourne? Also any suggestions for pet friendly accomodation there? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sky_Mel Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 That place looks great. I too have been trying to find somewhere in Vic with snow I can take my girl to as I think she would have a ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuddleDuck Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 For accomodation try here they have heaps of pet friendly accomodation, just ask them which places you can take dogs to. Obviously they are happy to have the dogs inside - not outside in the cold! There are no place that I know of that have yards though, and all walkies are on a leash, unless you go right down the back to the offlead area. I'm not sure how far from Melbourne, its about 10-15 minutes out of Mt Hotham if that helps though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
