Clair and Gary Albone opened their doggy cafe at The Hub Tenter Hill community centre, in Wessex Close, Stanground, in April last year.
The couple from Stanground have created a growing community of dog owners – who socialise over a cup of tea and a slice of cake while their dogs get to know each other at the cafe.
"It’s been really nice to bring these dogs together in a safe environment with other dog owners,” Clair, who runs the cafe as a volunteer every Thursday from 9.30am to 11.30am, said.
"It’s nice to see little pups come in and to watch them grow up into full-size dogs, and it’s also nice when dogs, who in the past have had a bit of anxiety, come and become more comfortable around other dogs."
Here’s a collection of the best 13 pictures the Peterborough Telegraph took on a recent visit to the cafe:
