North Coast vineyard and winery dogs
Whether on the job or just hanging out, winery dogs are a cherished part of many North Coast wine-making families. Man's best friend can chase deer out of a vineyard or simply provide comfort at the end of a 14-hour work day.
At Mendocino County's Navarro Vineyards a sheep dog herds the flock of Babydoll and Panama sheep that weed the vineyard rows.
St. Francis Winery loves pets so much, they hold a blessing of the animals every year.
