Happy New Year - Exciting News
Hello everyone. Happy New Year. Polly & me have got some exciting news but we can't tell you about it just yet.
It's top secret at the moment. We're keeping it under wraps for a little while longer, but we think you will love it, just as much as you love Whitby Dog Friendly Holidays.
We're always thinking up something new at headquarters. We like to keep on the ball, (or in my case, my red ball) and we love leading the way.
I always know when Polly's struck gold with ideas. We spend more time in Polly's think tank, (our conservatory), she sings more and Polly's designer must have, her camera, red, to match my ball, goes with her everywhere.
You won't be surpirsed to hear though, that Matt Damon, Polly's dream boat, had a bit of an unconscious influence on our little secret. No surprise there. But I am sort of warming to him a bit myself now cos I get more treats when Polly's excited.
Anyway, like all good ads, we've just given you a hint. It's sunny now and I can hear my lead jangling - we're off to Whitby beach. We'll keep you posted.
Luv & Hugs,
Bob xxxxxx (and my red ball)
River Esk Apartments - Whitehall Landing - Whitby - SALE OFFER
P.S. My mom has asked me to mention that she has a beautiful ground floor apartment at Whitehall Landing, Emmerdale's location shoot, in Whitby town centre. Sadly, mom's lease won't let her accept lovely dogs like me. But Seal View has spectacular waterside, harbour and Whitby Abbey views, and designated parking right outside the door. Mom thought it would be ideal for larger parties to book in conjunction with dog friendly accommodation by Whitby harbour, if some members don't need dog friendly. Seal View has easy access for everyone, including and external ramp and wide doorways, particularly beneficial for Whitby holidaymakers with disabilities. Please go to www.river-esk-apartments.co.uk to see more of Seal View at River Esk Apartments Whitby. September 24th Sale Offer £475 end 14 June

My mom's apartment, Seal View, is the ground floor one on the left hand side before it indents back.

Dog beach ban begins
30 April 2011

Scarborough Borough Council would like to remind dog owners that the seasonal restrictions allowing dogs on the main tourist beaches in the borough commences on Saturday 1 May.
The restrictions, which prohibit dogs from certain stretches of beaches starts this weekend and lasts throughout the summer season until 30 September and applies to the following areas of beach:
- In Filey from Royal Parade to the beach slipway which separates the Coble Landing from the Promenade.
- Scarborough's North Bay, from the northernmost beach slipway at the Sands development (former Corner Cafe) to the beach steps immediately to the south of the beach slipway at Scalby Mills.
- Scarborough's South Bay, from the West Pier to the southernmost flight of steps leading to the beach at the roundabout adjacent to the underground car park.
- Whitby's west beach from the West Pier to the east side of the beach steps, adjacent to the western end of the beach chalets.
- In Sandsend, from the steps below the public conveniences at Sandhills to the slipway at the southern end of Bank Bottom car park.
The above locations are clearly signed as dog ban areas and dog owners are reminded to avoid these areas from 1 May. All other beaches within the borough are available for the exercising of dogs during this period, although of course dog fouling - clean up - requirements apply to these areas.
