Dogs at the Swan Valley's only organic farm

The Harris organic vineyard (where our wine begins) is carefully tended by Duncan Harris, the owner and winemaker.

Unfortunately THE day has come! We have had two incidents where on separate occasions customers dogs have annoyed people on our premises plus a handful of disrespectful dog owners with dogs off leash.

We have decided for the safety of our staff, chickens and all our customers, dogs will not be allowed on the winery premises.

Our winery is deemed a food premises by the local authorities.
Would you take your dog inside a butchers shop or supermarket?

If you must bring your prized pooch then we ask you leave it in your vehicle with the windows down.

Guide dogs

However, the law allows companion animals (guide dogs) inside wine tasting rooms and on the property of licensed wineries, breweries, and distilleries in Swan Valley wineries and restaurants.

While going to vineyards with your dogs had been a pastime for many people, last year, the Department of Agriculture began cracking down on a law many people didn't know existed, preventing any animals other than service animals from being inside tasting rooms.
