Wilko allows pets on leads in 248 UK stores as Ayrshire shop welcomes furry friends

Wilko shops across the UK are now allowing pets on leads into all stores.

The store in Ayr is among the 248 shops relaxing rules on dogs and other animals being allowed in store. But Irvine isn't taking part in the scheme.

The new measures are in place now and furry friends will be able to browse the entire store apart from the food aisles.

The participating stores are primarily those with their own on-street entrance and exit rather than those that are, for example, located in shopping centres (like Irvine's Rivergate Centre store), which may not allow any animal guests, or where the entrance isn’t pet friendly.

Signage at store entrances will make it clear if pets are welcome, although customers can also check with the store team if they are at all unsure. Service dogs are, of course, welcome at all stores nationwide.

A wide range of pet products is also available to shoppers nationwide via wilko.com.
