I know Ft. Morgan has pet friendly beaches. It's not Destin, but it's on the same coastline

It's about 10 miles from Gulf Shores. It's been a couple of years since I've been, but my husband and I rented a house in Ft. Morgan and loved it! Private, secluded beaches and Punchinella had a blast. (There are some pics in my gallery of her on the beach)
