The city of Mende (pop. ~ 12000) is situated in the high valley of the Lot, within the area of the "Grands Causses" (limestone plateaus). One of these plateaus is the "Mont Mimat". I had found the "Le Paradis du Chien" already 8 years ago - and was a little disappointed to find the paradis locked up. Given up! But no! The paradise had moved away probably due to the sucess to larger premises. I found at facebook, that dog-owners love the paradise. The PiP has the old shot.

Well, we do not own a dog. So, when we were in Mende, we did not have a dog with us, what was good, as the "Paradis du Chien" in Mende was closed. Judging from the old wooden door and the stairs (right), the building probably looked pretty different, before it was changed into a paradise. But - on the other hand - can a paradise close at all? Shouldn´t a paradise not be open all day and night? Does hell has opening hours too?
