Tips for Bordeaux dog owners

Atlantic southwest advice

Garonne Tides

The Garonne in Bordeaux is tidal. Riverbanks can be wet and muddy at low tide. Keep dogs back from the water's edge near the quays.

Summer Heat

Bordeaux summers are warm and sunny. Walk in the morning or evening and carry water on longer routes through Parc Bordelais.

Leads on Quays

Despite the wide promenades, leads are legally required on the quays. Bordeaux police enforce this consistently near the tourist areas.
