Go Pet Friendly

The web site GoPetFriendly.com Pet Travel allows you to find hotels and other accommodations that allow pets.  Ideally, I think vacations are to give me a break from taking care of critters, but not everyone feels that way.  I did find Red Roof’s policy of allowing pets very handy when I drove three cats and an elderly Golden Retriever from Plano, TX to Colorado Springs.  Dairy Queens were also very useful, because they were spaced about every sixty miles in Texas, allowing me a break from driving, a refill of coffee, a bathroom (needed after all the coffee) and a chance to walk the dog.

Thanks for the link. We often travel with a dog, so we do care about pet friendliness a lot of the time. I'm finding that at least on the Oregon and Washington coast, I'm now seeing hotels advertise pet-friendliness right up there next to Cable and Pool. Not that surprising -- a higher percentage of Americans want to be able to travel with their pets than the percentage of hotels that want to offer that option. Allowing pets is therefore a competitive advantage.
