William Heritage Winery is family owned and operated, and located in Mullica Hill, NJ.
The outside patio is dog friendly, and the wines are probably some of the best we have tasted in NJ!

The Underwater Treadmill is a Great Low-Impact Workout!
One of the ways our pack stays fit during the off-season in the winter months is using an underwater treadmill. We take our dogs to Dr. Fulton at V-Crest.
This type of exercise is beneficial to dogs as it uses the therapeutic properties of water to improve range of motion, strengthen muscles, and boost endurance. The underwater treadmill is a low-impact, high-resistance workout that provides optimal training and conditioning. During the off-season, this activity provides a rigorous cardiovascular workout for our pups, with reduced impact and stress on their joints!
Barn Hunt at Tail Wagging Events
Rita and Limoncello have both earned their Rat I title (Instinct level), and both have one qualifying run for their Rat N title (Novice level).
We attended a barn hunt at Tail Wagging Events to see if we could both secure at least another qualifying run in the Novice level.
Unfortunately, neither team was able to do so, but we once again had a great time with our pups!
