Pat: I do not have a pet and never thought to ask. I did, however, see many locals with leashed pets strolling about the Public Gardens and even in coffee shops, Cabin Coffee on Hollis next to Four Points Hotel, specifically. I did notice that, as in Europe, dogs don't bark. If you have a barking dog inside a building, you may be asked to leave. Most of the sites reviewed have websites or email addresses. Contact the establishments for questions like this.
