We have a German Shepherd called Denzil. He loves it when all his doggy friends come in to see him to share a biscuit or two. Bowls of water are placed in easy to reace places, both inside and out. Many dogs who are not regulars want to come in, and can often be seen pulling their owners up the steps, wanting to sample the delights of the pub. We also sell Dog Beer, and were filmed for East Midlands news some years ago. The clip can be found on Denzils Facebook page facebook.com/denzilplough – Denzil has also had his photo in in our local paper, The Leicester Mercury, promoting sales of the dog beer.

12 October 2019 at 8:06amGreat local pub, I took Archie my Chocolate Cocker Spanial in when he was 16 weeks old he’s now 11 months old & Matt & Averil always make a fuss of him when he’s peering at the bar waiting for his treat , Archie looks forward to his trip to the plough because he’s treated as one of the locals

8 September 2018 at 7:35amFerdinand and Hector love The Old Plough. Hector is a very anxious dog but feels at home due to Matt and Avril’s patient approach with him. I regularly get pulled up steps when walking to the shops!

Helpful ReviewMatt and Avril incredibly friendly and relatable owners with a great knowledge of their trade and extensive Whisky and Gin collections and always a good selection of well cared for Real Ales.

4 September 2018 at 8:53pmThe best pub! Whenever you need some dog cuddles, walk into the Plough and you’ll have as many dog cuddles as you need. I recognise the regulars by dog, rather than by human ❤️

4 September 2018 at 7:18pmWe always take our two dogs to The Old Plough, and they enjoy it as much as us! They love the pub dog Denzil, as well as all the staff who give them fuss and treats every visit. This place is a must for any dog lovers.

4 September 2018 at 11:51amMat and Avril, and of course Denzil always make us (Oscar and I) welcome, and there’s always a treat for Oscar, and a great pint of beer ready on the bar since they already know my preferred beverage of choice.
