It comes as a survey reveals three in five owners wish all public houses were suitable for their mutt.

The appropriately named Ella Wolfenden, landlady at The Lion at Basford, said of the prize: “We’ve always rolled out the red carpet for canine customers, from doggy ice cream to a first aid kit behind the bar.

“We’ve created an environment where dogs can socialise, eat, drink and enjoy the pub just like their owners.
