We're all dog-daft at the Birch hall Inn, and well behaved dogs on leads are welcome in the bars and garden. In fact, sometimes there are more dogs than people ! There's always a drink outside, dog chews in the shop and the beck is handy to cool those walk-weary paws in summer. We enjoy meeting the dogs who visit, and if it's not too hectic we often take a quick snap of our favourites...so check out our top dog and have a look at our own canine collection. Sadly we are in a no-dog patch at the moment having said goodbye to our old Busby at the end of April 2008 so we're enjoing visiting dogs all the more..... Our dog - Busby An Irish Wheaten terrible - I mean Terrier - she almost reached 16 .. deaf and lumpy but still as mad as a hatter. Loved people but would have fought anything else if she had chance, silly girl !! She got her name from a dream when we lost Polly, our lovely springer spaniel.. ...Ozzy, Colins Staffy, was so lonely we were worried about her. Talking in his sleep, Neil said 'it's OK she's got her Busby to talk to..' seeing a tall furry guardsman helmet beside her. So we didn't have to think too hard to choose a name for her next playmate. Colin's dog - Ozzy She was 15 and the best Staffy in the world. Ate half our furniture for the first 18 months, neat chillies cured her but left her with a yearning for spicy food.  A bit creaky in the legs and very white in the face but time was when she could carry logs as big as herself. Everyone's friend, she was our pub 'rent a dog' for many years in her prime and would happily take visitors on all her favourite walks.... Now retired and taking life easy in the place dogs go when it's time to go...	Doggallery...your dog could be here...
