The dot on the “i” in this transformation may well be the name of a popular store catering to dogs – Babies on Gough in the Hayes Valley. There are no clothes for children in Babies, only expensive collars, clothes and treats for dogs (and, we think oddly, cats). Babies even hosted a Easter Egg hunt at Hayes Park on Sunday morning just for canines.

If you are looking to take your four-legged Jack or Annie or Maggie or Charlie out for a cocktail, we suggest the appropriately named Dogpatch Saloon on 3rd street at 22nd in Potrero Hill. A large inviting room awaits with plenty of space to roam around and a very friendly staff. Our bartender even had a tattoo of his dog on his arm. Not a lot of food opportunities and no water dish but a very chill vibe (and we like that). A solid 2.5 St. Bernards.
